Description

"Ever wondered what it's actually like to live in a middle-class apartment complex in China? Today I'm taking you on a complete tour of my apartment community in Wuhan—from the security gates and package delivery system to playgrounds, community spaces, small businesses, and the little everyday details that make life here unique.

As an American who's lived in China for eight years, I'm always fascinated by the small things that locals barely notice but visitors find surprising. Come along and see what everyday neighborhood life in Wuhan is really like!"

A few years back, the government made a huge campaign to get people to separate their garbage into five or seven different categories, but it failed miserably because people found out that most of the trash was actually just dumped all in the same place by the trash company anyways. So slowly people stopped.

extremely relatable, i have never heard of one of those initiatives ever panning out literally anywhere lol
