Lingang 75 kilometers from the center of Shanghai is a new city with strong contrast.The roads here are open and high -rise, but there are very few pedestrians.What hinders people in Lingang's house?How can this fifth anniversary free trade zone area gather popularity and attract more talents and enterprises to settle in?
Four years ago, engineer Liu Fei (pseudonym) made a choice to puzzle the friends around him: buying a house in the easternmost part of Shanghai.
Liu Fei told Lianhe Zaobao that at that time, many people believed that Lingang was too far from the city, the sea breeze was too large, and the living facilities were scarce, which was not suitable for settlement.However, in 2019, Lingang has become a new area of Shanghai Free Trade Zone, which has been supported by national policies. In addition, the electric vehicle giant Tesla set up factories in Lingang, which has made him optimistic about the development prospects of this new city.
In addition, the house price in Hong Kong at that time was about 30,000 yuan (RMB, the same below, the same, S $ 5,600) a square meter, which was 60 % lower than the Sanlin Town of Pudong, which Liu Fei lived.This made him and his wife determined to buy a house in Lingang, becoming the earliest group of owners after the establishment of the new area.
Since then, Liu Fei has paid special attention to the development of the Hong Kong Hong Kong.To his gratitude, in the past five years in Lingang, the industrial output value has grown at a high speed as expected, and there are more and more buildings.
Lingang with an area of about 873 square kilometers became a new area of the Shanghai Free Trade Pilot Zone in 2019.This strategy planned, deployed and promoted by Chinese officials aims to build a special economic functional area with international competitiveness and a modern new city.
The economic data is bright and the population grows slower
Official data show that from 2019 to 2023, the average annual growth rate of GDP in the Lingang District increased by 19.8 %.Even in the most serious impact of the epidemic in Shanghai, Lingang GDP still increased by 21.2 % year -on -year.
According to the innovative industrial planning of the Lingang New Trinity area released in 2020, Lingang GDP will reach 1 trillion yuan in 2035.The Pudong New Area established in 1992 will not achieve GDP exceeding 1 trillion yuan in 2018, and Lingang will take 16 years of Pudong for 26 years in 16 years.
However, compared with the dazzling economic data, the growth of the Lingang population is particularly slow.Official planning requires the local resident population to reach 800,000 in 2025, but the statistical yearbook of Pudong New District shows that as of the end of 2022, the resident population in the four towns of Lingang has just exceeded 450,000. From 2020 to 2022, an average annual increase of 46,000 people per yearEssence
If you want to achieve the expected goal, from 2023 to 2025, Lingang has an average of 116,000 people in a net inflow per year.On this basis, the average annual increase of 170,000 people in the next 10 years can achieve the goal of 2.5 million people in 2035.
The distance between 75 kilometers away from the city center is one of the main reasons that hinders most people in Lingang's house.From Lujiazui in Pudong to Lingang Diaoshui Lake, it takes at least an hour and a half whether it is driving or taking the subway.In contrast, it takes less than half an hour to take the high -speed rail from Shanghai to Suzhou, and it takes only one hour to go to Hangzhou.
In the past nine years, Liu Anhong (pseudonym), who lives in Wanxiang Town, Hong Kong, spends at least four hours a day to commute.He got up at 6:40 in the morning, took the bus to the subway station at 7 o'clock, and transferred to the subway two times to reach the company in Yangpu at 9 o'clock.
Liu Anhong from Shandong decided to buy a house in Shanghai in 2015. After investigating multiple locations, he believed that the most cost -effective in home property in Lingang."House prices here are cheap, suitable for family -just -needed families, and development potential is also great. In addition, Metro Line 16 leads to the urban area, and transportation is also more convenient than other suburban new cities."
Establish a number of transportation lines in the event of a crown disease every other year.
Nine years later, Lingang has leisure facilities such as the Astronomical Museum, Ski Resort, Performing Arts Center, and Football Comprehensive Movement Center. The school also opens at a speed of more than ten a year.The only thing that Liu Anhong expects is that there is still only one subway line to the urban area.
The establishment of a crown disease epidemic in the newly established area of Lingang is set up the following year. In addition, the Shanghai Fengcheng in Shanghai in 2022 has caused many local transportation line planning and construction progress.The two -port express line at Pudong Airport was originally scheduled to be completed in 2025, but from the perspective of construction progress, it will only be opened in 2026 as soon as possible.The Metro Line 27, which is said to be "half -hour to Lujiazui", has just completed the bidding of the planning plan last year, and the construction time has not been determined.
Liu Anhong believes that if Lingang can improve the construction of foreign traffic or provide more diverse job opportunities in the area, more people can settle down.He said that the current Lingang is mostly advanced manufacturing and science and technology enterprises. "I am e -commerce, there are more opportunities in the urban area, and the salary is higher."

Walking on the weekend, you can intuitively feel the industry's gathering effect on the population.The dense administrative and cultural tourism industries ushered in a large number of tourists in urban areas every weekend, but most of them went straight to the Ocean Museum, Ocean Park and other attractions. They were rarely stopped at the streets and alleys, and the shop business was relatively quiet.
Mi City Town, adjacent to the Tesla Super Factory and SAIC Group's Linkong Port production base, is coming and going on the weekend, most of which are young.At lunch, it was difficult to find the Wanda Shopping Plaza in the town, and many takeaway riders ran into it.
Chen Bo, a Chinese economist and a special researcher at Liaoning University, analyzed that the three -year epidemic affected the construction of the city's urban construction and the progress of personnel flow, and the pace of development of the service industry also slowed down.
"If the service industry must follow people, people will not develop without the service industry.
discount settlement support attracts young talents
Chen Bo believes that Lingang should use infrastructure and urban planning advantages to vigorously develop new service industries to make up for short boards with insufficient offline service facilities.
For example, although there are few pedestrians in Dishui Lake, there are more people in the office. For express delivery, takeaway and "Drive Through" services, have huge potential needs.
In order to attract more people, especially young people to settle in, Linkang gives more preferential settlement and supporting facilities.Provide a variety of residential support for talent apartments, settlement subsidies, and house purchase subsidies for talents who work in Hong Kong.
The data provided by the Management Committee of the Lingang New Area showed that as of May this year, the domestic talents in Lingang have settled over 90,000. At present, the total number of talents in the new district has exceeded 110,000.
For Shu Yanzhao, who had worked at Lingang 14 years ago, it was not the same as before.
He recalled that there was only one car on the road on the road on the road on the road, and there was no one alone."At that time, most of the people who came to buy a house in Hong Kong were now the foreigners. Now there are foreigners. Isn't the development fast enough?"
The family of four of Shu Yanzhao has settled in Hong Kong for many years.Ciwen Capital Company.He is optimistic that Lingang 10 years later is as prosperous as Lujiazui Financial Area."No one went when Lujiazui started construction. Now it is too late to go to Lujiazui, but it is not too late to come to Hong Kong."
