The population density of China is gradually changing from east to west. Shandong, Jiangsu and Guangdong have the largest population in the east, Henan and Hunan in the middle and Sichuan in the west.
The ten provinces with the largest population are Guangdong, Shandong, Henan, Sichuan, Jiangsu, Hebei, Hunan, Anhui, Hubei and Zhejiang.
From the perspective of location distribution, the eastern coastal areas have high population density, high urbanization rate and developed economy, so the population is very attractive. A large number of migrant workers have flooded into the central and western regions, especially in high-income provinces such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong, and the total population is much higher than the registered population.
In terms of urban population distribution, Chongqing, the provincial capital city, won the championship. Among the 22 cities on the list, 15 cities are from the eastern coastal areas, and other regions together account for 7 places.
