There is a subsidy for installing elevators in old houses. Why don't many communities install it?

There are many communities without elevators. The technical reasons for the elevator are secondary, and the most important thing is the interests of the residents in the community. In the past, old houses were mainly vertical staircase rooms, and many elevators could only be half filled. If you live on the sixth floor, you can only go to the fifth floor or the fifth floor and a half, and you have to run downstairs yourself, which is not practical.

Secondly, it is difficult to install elevators, and it is also difficult to entangle the interests of residents from all walks of life. It costs a lot of money to install elevators. If you are a resident on the first floor, you don't need the elevator if you use it well. If the elevator is installed, it will affect the lighting and there will be clang! For the residents on the second and third floors, they only need to climb a few steps to go home, and they don't need elevators very much. Although it is convenient, it costs a lot of money to install the elevator, and the subsidy is not enough. They are definitely not willing to pay. As mentioned earlier, the bottom users spent a lot of money on 1, 2, and 3 floors. Now that the elevator is coming, they have to bear the loss. High-level users have elevators, and house prices will go up. Low-level users fell down because of the noise and lighting problems of the elevator, and their psychology must be unbalanced. The top is the winner of interests, and the bottom is the victim of interests.

Moreover, although there are subsidies, the procedures for applying for installing elevators are very complicated, and the service life of elevators is limited. Generally speaking, elevators are repaired once a year and replaced once every 10. The cost of poor maintenance is very expensive. Some elderly residents, many of whom can't use elevators. If they are trapped in the elevator, it will cause casualties, which is also a big problem.

Finally, many old houses were built in the 1990s, so the quality itself will be problematic, and there will be security risks when installing elevators. In short, the installation and maintenance costs of elevators are high, and the procedures are difficult to involve many examination and approval departments and the interests of many users, so it is difficult to coordinate, so many communities do not have elevators.
