According to statistics from the Ministry of the Interior, there are over 9 million residential units in Taiwan, with over 50% of them being over 30 years old, totaling to 4.83 million units. The average age of homes in Taiwan is 32 years, but the pace of redevelopment has been slow. An investigative team reported on the situation of old houses post-earthquake, revealing issues such as tilted floors, falling rocks, and relunctance in redeveloping due to low willingness of first-floor tenants, creating dilemmas between rental profits and public safety.
