DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/004c6a/understanding_chin) has announced the addition of the "Understanding China's Demographics" report to their offering. China is a very large country both geographically and in terms of population and it is important that those doing business in China have an understanding of how the population is organised geographically, as well as having an understanding of the key drivers of population change. This report is written as an 'introduction' to those issues. It starts by detailing the geo-demographic structure of the country (Municipalities, Provinces, Prefectures and counties/cities). It explains the different categories of cities and counties, their relative size and growth. The report also examines the urban/rural divide. What is the definition of urban, how does the urban and rural populations differ? The report then examines the rural to urban drift. What are the drivers of it, who is migrating, and how will the rate of migration trend in the future given the drivers of it. Births are examined, next. What is the likely true level of births, the extent to which the one child policy affects births, the relative importance of cities, towns and rural populations to total births, and the likely impact on total births if the one child policy is relaxed. Finally the report examines household incomes and shows estimated average household income as well as the distribution of households by income level, and why these numbers are defensible. It then shows the current average household income for each of urban and rural households and the number of more affluent households households that exist Key Topics Covered: * Introduction * Introduction and Key Learning * The Key Learning's * Provinces and Municipalities * Prefectures * Cities, Towns and Rural * Urban - Rural Definition * Urban-Rural Divide * Urban Rural Migration * Births * The Distribution of Households by Income For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/004c6a/understanding_chin Research and Markets Laura Wood, Senior Manager, press@researchandmarkets.com U.S. Fax: 646-607-1907 Fax (outside U.S.): +353-1-481-1716 Copyright Business Wire 2009
