In order to understand the demand characteristics of housing security and improve the implementation effect of security policies, the subdivided family lifecycle of low-income family housing need was analyzed by fuzzy clustering with some Harbin samples, and the characteristics of various stages of housing security need, which was meet by four modes, such as “high subsidy +cheap-rent housing”, “rent subsidy”, “home ownership subsidy+ affordable housing”, “low rent subsidy + public rental housing”. The study has positive theoretical significance and practical value on the housing security policy.

In recent years, many cities have been broadening the scope of housing security, in order to safeguard low income families, by increasing the low income cut-off and by lowering the thresholds of application for housing security. Firstly, an empirical analysis on the implementation effect is applied in this paper focused on the expansion of low-rent housing security policy in Guangzhou. Secondly, the existing problems during the expansion policy implementation is also concluded in this paper from perspective of working style, effectiveness, security standard, and application experience of residents. Finally, possible suggestions are proposed in this paper for improving the low-rent housing security policy in Guangzhou, in the mean time, providing the reference for the setting and implementation of the expansion of low-rent housing security policy in other cities.

Using the Spanish National Immigrant Survey (NIS-2007) we identify the ethnic niches where workers from five main immigrant communities concentrate. We then implement logit models in order to assess how structural factors and human and social capital variables affect the odds of working in these niches. We observe that the strong segmentation of the Spanish labour market strongly favours the concentration of immigrants in certain occupational niches. Nevertheless, variables related to human and social capital still play a significant role in the placement of immigrant workers in different niches, all of which are not equally attractive.
