General Information About Shanghai

Shanghai as one of the biggest city of China has over 2.5 million of auto mobilities resisted in the city. There are 1.01 million of cars are personal auto, which mean every five families owns a car. However, there are still a lot of people resisted their car in some other cities and used in Shanghai. 
Do you know how crowd will Shanghai be with this big amount of cars?
First of all, let's have a look some pictures.
 These pictures are in downtown Shanghai last Friday afternoon. This was not even in rush hours. 
A city with 7,037.50 square kilometers in total, which also includes 697 square kilometers water area. The real urban size of Shanghai is only 2,648.6 square kilometers.
Here is some other information that I got. Toronto is 632 square kilometers but with only 4.3 million of people. The great Toronto is about 1600 square kilometers with 3.89 million of people.  
We can see that the size of these two cities are similar. However, there are 19.91 million of people live in Shanghai with a citizenship of Shanghai, which is almost six times of Toronto's population.
According to this numbers, you will see how many opportunities this City should offer to its citizens.
Lots of people ask me about houses in Shanghai so I will find out some information about houses in Shanghai next time.
