Is there a way to work around that situation?

Is there a way to work around that situation?
I know that in big city ( Paris,New York ) this same kind of problem result in many interesting way. The room ( for rent )becomes very small - as little as 10 sq.m or less per room was rent to single person ,luckily it has it own very small w.c. ,or people start to broadeen there look to a different kind of place to live ,such as an old factory,old office space,shophouse.
I've been walking through the French Conssesion and surrounded area I notice that apart from the old houses that worth millions of R.M.B.,there are also manys that look a bit neglected (or you can say it look poor),quite small and not fully used,that the kind of the old building I'm talking about.
