In our analysis and research, we noticed that whether it is education or commerce, the advantageous resources tend to be concentrated in the center of the city, but the level and strength of resources in the peripheral areas are also on the rise.
Education
Outlying areas are on the rise, with first-hand properties favoring the introduction of prestigious schools
As of 2017, there were 961 elementary school in Guangzhou*** (of which 154 were privately-run), with 1,047,000 students enrolled. Among all urban areas, those with more than 100,000 students in school include Baiyun, Panyu, Huadu and Tianhe, and 90,000 in Zengcheng. The new urban areas and outlying districts, which have developed in recent decades, have become home to the largest school-age populations.
However, Guangzhou's superior educational resources have always been concentrated in the center of the city, for example, in the number of "provincial elementary school", Yuexiu has 20, Baiyun 11, Liwan, Haizhu 10, Tianhe 9, but in the suburbs of Zengcheng only three, Nansha only one.
It is for this reason that when it comes to school district housing, people tend to think of second-hand properties in areas with strong educational resources such as Yuexiu and Tianhe, especially houses near schools such as Dongfeng East Road Primary School and Huayang Primary School, which are highly sought after by parents. However, affected by the location of the central city, the price of these school district housing tends to rise, not all families can fully afford.
In fact, in the relatively distant Huangpu, Panyu and Huadu, the number of prestigious schools is also quite large, for example, the number of "provincial" elementary school in Panyu is 14, Huangpu and Huadu are 10 and 8, respectively. Although you can't define a good or bad elementary school by its "provincial level" alone, there's no doubt that the construction of these areas over the past decade or so has led to a rise in the level of basic education resources, and even if you buy a house in a peripheral urban area, your child will still have access to a prestigious school.
In recent years, the allocation of educational resources in the also appear new changes. Many new commercial real estate developments in Guangzhou have been equipped with school facilities in accordance with planning requirements, and the school buildings are delivered to the education authorities to run the school after completion. In this process, some of the buildings with the construction of schools to successfully introduce well-known schools or education group resources, in which to open a branch campus or directly set up a new school. This practice of "building nests to attract phoenixes" has brought the sweetness of upgrading education resources to the peripheral urban areas where first-hand properties are densely built. At the same time, as the developer undertakes the construction of the school building, the residents of the corresponding development also become the source of school students, which makes the children of the owners realize that "out of the door is the door of the school".
Typical cases abound, such as the Zhuguang Royal View One of the Sha Mian Primary School (Royal View One neighborhood), the New World Kai Yue Bay of Xiguan Pui Zheng Primary School (Kai Yue Bay Campus), Nansha Poly City Huangge Primary School Branch, Praying for the blessing of the new estates of the new estates of the new estates of Praying for the blessing of the new estates of the elementary school and Praying for the blessing of the English language experimental school, and so on. Some properties even choose to cooperate with educational institutions to create an international education model.

Business
Community retail is on the riseNew commercial bodies are expanding in the suburbs
Nowadays, community retail is getting more and more attention. In Guangzhou, some properties in the marketing very much like to use "enjoy a million community commercial facilities" "community with a large-scale commercial street" and other promotional phrases. At present, the commercial facilities as a residential ancillary products, first-hand real estate more or less will be built.
Some data show that in 2017, the domestic real estate development residential construction area of 5.36 billion square meters, community commercial supporting by 10% of the assumption of 536 million square meters. DTZ pointed out in an analysis report that community commerce in first-tier cities in China accounts for only about 30% of retail sales of social consumer goods, which means that the community commercial market has huge potential. At present, Vanke, Poly, Greenland and other enterprises have been actively building community commercial product lines.
Community commerce can accommodate a wide range of stores to meet people's daily needs, convenience stores, small vegetable farms, beauty salons, pharmacies and so on can be stationed in the layout. However, at present, community business is still regarded by developers as "hot potato", openers will often be quick cash, sold to small and medium-sized investors. The lack of unified planning and operation of community commercial business has led to chaotic operation and no sustained customer flow. In this regard, DTZ Guangzhou Commercial Real Estate Department Senior Assistant Director Wen Yuanwen said, according to the proportion of different consumer groups in the community and demand, can be planned accordingly, in the layout of the industry, to meet the community's consumer demand, but also closely follow the wave of new retail.
Despite the significance of the development of community commerce, large-scale commercial complexes are still an indispensable part of people's daily lives. Once upon a time, when people think of shopping, they always think of places like Tianhe River and Shangxiajiu, where shopping malls are concentrated and many residents in the far suburbs choose to come and shop. However, in recent years, some large commercial complexes have begun to layout in the suburbs of Guangzhou. Typical cases such as Zengcheng Wanda Plaza, Panyu Asian Games City Plaza, Praying for the colorful sinks, etc., these large-scale commercial complexes collection of shopping, catering, movies, leisure and entertainment is equal to the integration of the services provided with the central city Tianhe City, Zhengjia Plaza and so on and is not very different.
The emergence of suburban commercial complexes to meet the shopping and leisure needs of suburban residents, especially for the Asian Games City, Prayerful New Estate and other mega-residential communities, the popularity of commercial complexes can be filled directly by residents.
DTZ data pointed out that in 2019, Guangzhou's premium retail market is expected to have a total of 6 shopping centers totaling 642,000 square meters of new supply, and the projects planned to enter the market will be concentrated in non-core business districts, such as Baiyun and Panyu, and the commercial atmosphere will be further cultivated.
