Why Rushan is a ghost town?

Rushan is called a "ghost town" for many reasons, some of which may include:

1. Overexploitation: The real estate development in Rushan started in 2005. Due to the lack of planning and control, a large number of real estate projects have been developed, resulting in oversupply of houses and low occupancy rate, forming a "ghost town" phenomenon.

2. Geographical location: Rushan is located at the southeast end of Shandong Peninsula, far from big cities, and the traffic is relatively inconvenient, which may lead to limited population flow and insufficient housing demand.

3. Population loss: Rushan has a relatively small population and a serious aging population. The outflow of young people may lead to insufficient housing demand.

4. Economic situation: Rushan's economy is relatively weak and lacks industrial support, which may lead to insufficient housing demand.

It should be pointed out that Rushan is called a "ghost town" for more than these reasons, and these reasons are not caused by a single factor. At the same time, it should be emphasized that "ghost town" is not an academic concept in a strict sense, and the definition and judgment criteria of "ghost town" may be different in different places.
