Low-income people is that their income levels below the average income of residents in a certain period within the same geographical area. According to the "five sub-Law," it should include the low-income group and the lower income group. In Shijiazhuang City, low-income groups refer to the groups who have the city accounts, and whose per capita household income is below the disposable income of 0.8 times in the previous year, and the per capita housing construction area is less than 15 square meters and the total construction area of a family is less than 50 square meters .The paper analyzes the status of the housing in Shijiazhuang .The low-income groups show concentrate of the distribution industry, housing area stenosis, the functional characteristics of poor facilities. Low income levels and high prices abnormal particularly conspicuous contradictions, it is very urgent to develop the low- rent housing system.Shijiazhuang government has promulgated the "City of Shijiazhuang minimum income families and low-cost housing management methods" and "low-income households low-rent housing application, examination and approval, and the publicity and withdraw Regulations on Management " .They have a standardized construction on low-rent housing system from the scope of protection, logistical support, funding sources, withdraw from the mechanism, and other areas . part of the low-income groups have got corresponding protection. But low-rent housing in Shijiazhuang City faces tremendous difficulties and challenges because of too much emphasis on the commodity housing properties in the past housing reform, and the neglect of its people's livelihood attributes, coupled with the history and mechanisms, and the reasons for the design.

The root cause is difficulties of low-income groups out of poverty ,and the single channel of funds supply and housing.The goal programming ignored the economic strength and the coordination of security groups, defection of management resource system , over-dependence of local finance on the real estate tax.The following measures on the existing low-rent housing system for the construction of low-cost problem in Shijiazhuang City based on analytical study (1) increase the supply through a variety of low-cost way, and policy guidance should encourage"one household one house".

It is essential to excute the building of low-rent housing security system as the basic strategy because it relates to people's livelihood, and it should be established in local laws form. Then we should put the building systems of "low-cost" families on the agenda of government and insure the system by optimizing the structure of government.
