More and more people are moving into cities during the process of urbanization of our country. Migrants made great contribution to urban economical, social and cultural development. However, the problem of the integration of migrants remains unsolved until now. The problem of accommodation, which serves as the carrier of a normal life, is the most crucial for migrants to settle down in cities and to integrate into society, the influence of migrants is mainly studied in current researches from such points of views as individual characters, human resources and so on.
