Its pretty uncommon to own a home in China. Much more likely to be a communal housing complex or apartment.

Someone just posted that the ownership rate is 89% (apparently 92% as of newer data): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_home_owne...

I think the rural parts of china is driving those stats.

I tried to check the source but it doesnt list it. My knowledge is mostly anecdotal so could be wrong but I would be incredibly surprised if the stat you reference was accurate.
