For one thing, most of the people in these areas are migrants from south or central Taiwan. For another, most of the residents are workers of relatively lower education, with more of a sense of social frustration, so a god that emphasizes solving acute needs has seen his followers grow quickly in numbers.
這些地區，一來多是中南部的移入者所居，二來居民多屬「吃人頭路」（受雇於人）的勞力工作者，教育程度較低、而社會挫折感較大，所以強調可以解人急難需求的神壇，便大量成長。
