It's easier for urban residents in the greater Zhengzhou metropolitan area to buy houses in Zhengzhou
都市圈城市居民来郑买房更方便了
1
Recently, Zhengzhou has worked hard to put into place policies that will help urban residents in the "1+8" metropolitan area purchase homes, relocate to Zhengzhou, and meet their reasonable housing needs. These policies include mutual recognition of housing provident funds when applying for loans.
日前，郑州市着力落实好“1+8”都市圈城市居民买房公积金互认互贷等政策措施，支持都市圈城市居民购房落户郑州和市民合理住房需求。
As of September 2022, housing provident funds in the "1+8" metropolitan area (Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, Luoyang, Pingdingshan, Xuchang, Luohe, Xinxiang, Jiaozuo and Jiyuan) will be mutually recognized, according to a previous announcement from the Zhengzhou Provident Fund Management Center.
此前郑州住房公积金管理中心印发了一份通知，从2022年9月起，郑州、开封、洛阳、平顶山、许昌、漯河、新乡、焦作、济源“1+8郑州都市圈”住房公积金实现互认互贷。
The rule states that workers who have contributed to housing provident funds in the other cities in the metropolitan area can apply for housing fund loans when purchasing homes in Zhengzhou, exactly like those who have contributed locally. Obtaining a household registration in the Zhengzhou administrative districts is no longer a condition for loan applicants.
根据政策，郑州将都市圈其他城市的缴存职工视同本地缴存职工，在郑州购房可以申请住房公积金异地贷款。同时，不要求贷款职工先取得郑州行政区域户籍。
Employees who pay housing provident funds in the other cities in the metropolitan area can utilize those funds according to the same restrictions as those who contribute in Zhengzhou. Once the Cooperation Agreement on Integrated and Coordinated Development of Housing Provident Funds in the "1+8 Metropolitan Area" goes into effect, employees who pay housing provident funds in the other cities in the metropolitan area will receive the same treatment as those who pay in Zhengzhou when applying for a housing provident fund loan for a home purchase in Zhengzhou. That applies to the approval of the loan amount, loan interest rate, repayment method and repayment terms, as well as the handling of loan procedures, mortgage registration and loan issuances. When purchasing housing in the other cities in the metropolitan area, employees who pay housing provident funds in Zhengzhou may withdraw the housing provident fund in accordance with the corresponding conditions in Zhengzhou, and they are no longer required to obtain a household registration certificate in the place of purchase.
都市圈其他城市缴存职工与郑州缴存职工可以同等条件使用住房公积金。《“1+8郑州都市圈”住房公积金一体化协同发展合作协议》实施后，都市圈内的缴存职工来郑州购房申请住房公积金贷款时，在审批贷款金额、贷款利率、还款方式、还款期限方面，以及在办理借款手续、房屋抵押登记、贷款发放方面享受郑州缴存职工同等待遇。在都市圈其他城市购买住房的郑州缴存职工，可以比照在郑州购房提取住房公积金的对应条件，办理住房公积金提取业务，不再要求提取申请人出具购房地的户籍证明。
Mutual recognition of housing provident funds among the nine cities not only contributes to the domestic housing market's resurgence and residents' sense of belonging, but they also hasten the flow of capital and talent between the cities, thereby boosting the demand for purchasing houses in different places.
九个城市进行公积金互认互贷不仅有利于激活楼市内需，增强居民对九座城市的归属感，还有助于加速城市间的资金和人才流动，增加异地置业需求。
It is easier for urban residents in the metropolitan area to purchase homes in Zhengzhou thanks to a number of beneficial policies.
随着多项利好叠加，都市圈城市居民来郑州买房更方便了。

Zhengzhou released 10 new policies aimed at young people from around the world in the spring of 2022 to encourage business startups and innovation. A living allowance of 54,000, 36,000, and 18,000 yuan per person will be provided respectively for full-time doctoral students who work in Zhengzhou within three years after graduation (or outstanding people who have studied abroad within six years after graduation), as well as postgraduate students, undergraduate graduates and preparatory technicians (or technicians) from technicians institutes under the age of 35. A resettlement subsidy of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan will also be provided to post-doctoral students who are recruited by or stay with enterprises in Zhengzhou.
2022年春，郑州向全球青年人才递上橄榄枝、送上“大礼包”，出台10条“青年人才新政”，邀请全球青年英才来郑创新创业。其中，对毕业3年内（海外留学优秀人才毕业6年内）来郑工作的全日制博士研究生、35周岁以下的硕士研究生、本科毕业生和技工院校预备技师(技师)，按每人5.4万元、3.6万元、1.8万元的标准发放生活补贴。此外，对郑州市企业引进或出郑留企工作的博士后，给予20万-30万元安家补助。
Zhengzhou has been steadily enhancing its post-doctoral work system over the past few years in an effort to introduce and nurture innovative young talent and advance the integration of production, education, and research. As a result, the post-doctoral team has gradually grown, and 132 national, provincial and municipal platforms have been established. Postdoctoral work has emerged as a crucial means for enhancing Zhengzhou's capacity for independent innovation and accelerating the application of scientific and technology advancements.
据了解，近年来，郑州市博士后工作紧紧围绕引进培养创新型青年人才，促进产学研融合的发展目标，不断完善工作制度，博士后队伍逐渐壮大，已经建成了国家、省、市三级工作平台132个。博士后工作已成为提升郑州自主创新能力、加快科技成果转化的重要途径。
Approved Zhengzhou post-doctoral research centres and provincial and municipal post-doctoral innovation practice bases have been established. Enterprises can get up to 1 million yuan, 500,000 yuan, and 200,000 yuan, respectively, for setting up postdoctoral centres. According to a recruitment notice issued by Zhengzhou in May, 59 enterprises in Zhengzhou are looking to hire postdocs, offering the highest annual salary of 500,000 yuan.
郑州市博士后引进支持政策主要有：经批准设立的郑州市博士后科研工作站和省、市博士后创新实践基地，设站单位可分别享受最高100万元、50万元、20万元资助。在郑州市5月份向博士后发出的“求贤令”中，郑州共有59家单位招收博士后，开出的最高年薪为50万元。
Moreover, on March 1st, 2022, Zhengzhou City issued the Circular on Promoting a Virtuous Circle and Healthy Development of the Real Estate Industry, covering five major items and 19 measures. These include supporting reasonable housing demand, improving housing market supply, and increasing credit and financing support. Zhengzhou has thus become the first provincial capital to loosen mortgage and home purchase limitations.
而且，2022年3月1日，郑州市曾发布《关于促进房地产业良性循环和健康发展的通知》，涉及五大项、19条举措，其中包括支持合理住房需求、改善住房市场供给、加大信贷融资支持等。郑州从而成为首个放松限购、限贷的省会城市。

In addition to beneficial relocation policies for talented individuals in neighboring cities, Zhengzhou also encourages overseas friends to make their home there.
郑州不仅对周边城市的人才屡屡抛出利好“安家政策”，也欢迎外国友人来定居。
As early as April 2021, the Service Center for Social Inclusion of Foreigners of Zhengzhou University of Technology—the first service center for immigration and entry-exit affairs in Zhengzhou—was officially established.
早在2021年4月，郑州市首家移民和出入境事务服务站点“郑州工程技术学院外国人社会融入服务站”就正式挂牌成立。
The establishment of such service centers is an innovative measure taken by the Zhengzhou Public Security Bureau in response to the Zhengzhou municipal party committee and government's development strategy of attracting talent to continuously optimize an international, market-oriented and law-based business environment. The purpose is to build an interactive platform for migrants and provide services for foreigners living in Zhengzhou related to policy consultation, residence and travel, legal aid, language and culture.
在全市推进建立外国人社会融入服务站，是郑州公安机关服务市委市政府引智引才发展战略，持续优化国际化、市场化、法治化营商环境的创新举措，旨在通过社会融入服务站这一形式，搭建移民交流互动平台，为在郑常住外国人提供政策咨询、居留旅行、法律援助、语言文化等社会融入服务。
The social integration services, according to many foreigners who have benefited from them, have improved their understanding of Chinese culture and increased their mutual trust. These services have enabled Zhengzhou to be closer to the rest of the world and drawn more and more foreigners to live and work there.
如今，很多受益的外国朋友都说，通过社会融入服务增进了对中国文化的深入了解，增进彼此互信认同，拉近了郑州与世界的距离，也吸引带动着越来越多的外籍人士来到郑州安心定居、舒心就业。
