  每一项投资都伴随着风险,因此一些投资者选择在一些安全稳定、房价高的城市购买房产来冲淡投资风险,这种城市就叫hedge city(对冲城市)。

  Hedge city is a safe, stable city with extremely high real estate values caused by foreign investors buying properties as a hedge against instability in their own countries.

  “对冲城市”是那些安全、稳定、房价高的城市,外国投资者会选择在这种城市购买房产,以避免自己国家投资不稳定造成的损失。

  A hedge city is a place where wealthy people in booming but unstable societies pile into local real-estate markets, driving up values. The typical hedge city is innocuous, offering privacy and seclusion as well as social and political stability.

  繁荣发展但不稳定的国家的富人们会大量涌入“对冲城市”的房地产市场,从而催高房价。典型的“对冲城市”是安全无害的,拥有稳定的社会和政治环境,人们的隐私会受到保护,能够在城市中安静地生活。
