The residential community established in 2012 is home to many low-income earners who mainly live in affordable housing. To improve employment, authorities have offered training programs on producing handmade flowers and sewing, and invested nearly 3 million yuan to build a 1,200-square-meter factory, enabling local residents to find jobs at their doorstep.
