PerryChase, I am a Chinese American. The community I like is in the city of Guangzhou (Canton), which attacts lots of non ethnic Chinese, such as American, Canadian, Japenese, and Korean. You may check out the website: http://2005.star-river.com/en/
You can get maid there for $1 (US) an hour. They clean and cook for you. There is no property tax yet (but I heard it’s comming). I paid off the condo. The only thing I need to pay is HOA (about $50/month for a 1,200 Sq ft condo) and utilities (about $80 for gas, water, and electricity). The security is execellent at least inside the community. And the house is in much better quality, steel and concrete structure with high end upgrade inside out.
