In stark contrast to the rat tribe, there is the pigeon tribe aka the rats of the skies.
These people live in illegal make shift buildings on top of apartment buildings, which are usually invisible to anyone that doesn't live in a building that is at least as high as the apartment building in question.
These people are usually poor, however there are also better off people doing this:

They also link this rich person story as well. http://www.architectureanddesign.com.au/news/illegally-built-corridor-bridges-high-rise-apartme http://www.architectureanddesign.com.au/news/illegally-built...
- unimportant 12y agoIts just my observation from living in second tier cities in China (not in Beijing). I'm not sure who gets the money in the end, but it's a popular option for poorer workers.
