Abstract:Solving the housing problem for rural migrant workers and realizing “Homes for All Workers” is a basic requirement of people-centered development philosophy. In the past, rural migrant workers flooded into cities, making important contributions to the rapid development of urban economy. However, the housing problem of most migrant workers still exists during this survey. There are problems such as crowded housing and incomplete supporting facilities. For the rural migrant workers, housing is the most basic material condition for them to work and live in cities. Improving the housing status of rural migrant workers and improving their residential satisfaction are of great significance for promoting the healthy development of urban economy.The innovation of this paper is mainly reflected in the following two aspects. One is the innovation of research perspective. In the study of residential satisfaction, difference in research groups may lead to difference in research results. However, few of the existing researches focus on a specific group, and the researches on migrant workers need to be supplemented. Another is the innovation of research content. Residential satisfaction is a comprehensive evaluation index, which can be affected by many factors. A single factor can not reflect the change of migrant workers’ satisfaction. However, there is a lack of researches on the correlation between influencing factors.Based on the sampling survey of floating population in Zhejiang Province in 2020, we mainly focus on the residential satisfaction of migrant workers and 11,298 valid questionnaires were obtained. Furthermore, a Multivariate Logistic Model was used to analyze the main factors affecting residential satisfaction, and the correlation between the influencing factors were analyzed on the basis of traditional researches. The research shows that housing conditions, number of people living together, and living area have more impact on the residential satisfaction compared with income and rental costs, while housing conditions are the most important factor. Among housing conditions, kitchens, sound insulation, and lighting have a greater impact. To further explore the cross impact, four composite variables are constructed to carry out a correlation analysis. Results show that the impact of composite variables is more obvious compared with single variables while per capita living area and rental income ratio are more significant. As the per capita living area decreases, the probability that rural migrant workers tend to be negatively evaluated increases. With the decrease of the rental income ratio, the probability of negative evaluation appears to be an inverted U shape. We believe that various factors should be taken into account to solve the housing problem of migrant workers. First, the housing conditions of migrant workers should be improved, especially sound insulation and lighting. Second, cost-effective rental housing and employee dormitories for migrant workers should be built through the balancing of the factors affecting residential satisfaction. Third, we should regulate the management of the housing market of migrant workers and supervise unreasonable residence.
