If I search the name, half the articles say 20k, other half 30k. Honestly, I have serious doubts about both figures...
Snopes has an article on it, and even they couldn't come up with a solid number.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/china-apartment-building-residents/
25K then?
I counted 37 floors. If there are 37 apartments per floor since the building looks square-ish (those would be some small apartments) and there are 2 rows (one on each side of the building), that is less than 3k apartments. If each had a family of four, that is less then 12k.
I think the capacity is 30k, but 20k people currently live there
I wouldn't be surprised if the numbers were off by an order of magnitude. 1500 units with on average 2 people works out to 3000. Looking at the pictures, that feels like a more realistic number.
That’s about 50 units per floor. Which does seem a bit low from looking at the pic. But 1000 per floor (to give you the 30k) seems way too high, unless the units are the size of broom closets.
30 thousand people used to live here.
Now it's a ghost town.
