Immigrants

[edit]

According to the census, China has 1,430,695 immigrants, divided between 845,697 foreign nationals and 584,998 residents of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.[11]

Background

[edit]
Average annual population growth rates in provincial-level administrative units between 2010 and 2020 according to the Chinese National Bureau of Statistics

In October 2015, China scrapped theone-child policy in the hope of boosting the number of births.[12][13] In 2016, China set a target of increasing its population to about 1.42 billion by 2020, from 1.34 billion in2010.[14]

After the relaxation of the one-child policy, 17.9 million babies were born in 2016, an increase of 1.3 million over the previous year, but only half of what was expected.[15] In 2017, the birth rate fell to 17.2 million, far below the official forecast of more than 20 million.[15] It is possible that the Chinese government will further relax its fertility policy in the future.[16]

On November 2, 2020,Chinese Communist Partygeneral secretaryXi Jinping answered census workers' questions inBeijing.[4]

The 2020 census showed that the gender ratio of mainland China has improved, with the male-to-female ratio reaching a new record low of 105.07.[17] This is the most balanced gender ration since the People's Republic of China began conducting censuses in 1953.[18]

Revisions

[edit]

On April 27, 2021, theFinancial Times reported that according to some sources who know the data of the seventh census, Chinese population in 2020 did not meet 1.4 billion.[19] Chinese state media say that mainland Chinese population in 2019 was 1.40005 billion.[20][21][22] If true, this would indicate the first population decline since theGreat Leap Forward.[23]

On April 28, 2021,Bloomberg News, quoting the Chinese state media outlet theGlobal Times, reported that it is unlikely there would be a drop in the total population in the 2020 census, citing a comment by Lu Jiehua, a professor atPeking University. Still, it was reported that China's population may peak in 2022, which is much earlier than previously estimated.[24]

In May 2021, theNational Bureau of Statistics of China released a report revising the data for the previous 10 years before the 2020 census. They announced that there were about 10 million more births between 2011 and 2019 than previously thought. That means there were actually more births before Beijing ended one-child policy in 2016.[25]
