Cage housing,Hong Kong. Cage houses are a type of stacked temporary accommodation that exists in Hong Kong,one of the most crowded and densely populated cities in the world. The rooms are cramped cage-like units,large enough for a bed and a few possessions,but little else. Other facilities will be shared with other residents. Originally built for construction workers,these units have become the long-term home of some of the poorest and most vulnerable in Hong Kong society,including the elderly,single people,the unemployed,ex-prisoners,and economic migrants |
