Abstract: This paper examines the effect of housing price on health of China’s urban residents, and further explores the issue of health inequality. We find that the increase of housing price significantly improves people’s physical health, but hurts their mental health, and this effect is affected by residents’ housing wealth. Furthermore, the health inequality related to housing wealth exists in mental health rather than physical health.
