Based on the data of a survey on floating population in Hubei Province in 2012，this paper analyzes the situation of the housing character and housing rent of the floating population in the inflow places and analyzes the influential factors of floating population on housing choices by multinominal logistic model. The research results show that currently China’s floating population’s affordable capacity for the housing is low，that the majority of the floating population rent affordable housing，however，with the rising of the average family’s culture level， the floating population are more inclined to buy their own housing，that the larger the scope of the floating population floats，the higher the housing price for the floating population is inclined to rent，and that the larger the number of the floating population is，the higher the possibility for the floating population to buy their own housing or to rent high price housing is. In addition，there is certain difference in the aspect of housing choice of the floating population in the cities with different sizes.
