Bird's Eye View Of Shanghai, China

Demographics
The 2010 census put Shanghai's total population at 23,019,148, a growth of 37.53% from 16,737,734 in 2000. 20.6 million of the total population, or 89.3%, are urban, and 2.5 million (10.7%) are rural. Based on population of total administrative area, Shanghai is the second largest of the four direct-controlled municipalities of China, behind Chongqing, but is generally considered the largest city in China because Chongqing's urban population is much smaller.
Shanghai's 2010 population of 23 million includes 8.997 million long-term migrants, almost triple the 3.06 million in 2000. They account for almost the entire increase in Shanghai's population as its natural growth rate has been negative since 1993 due to low fertility rate. The main origins of these "new Shanghainese" are Anhui (29.0%), Jiangsu (16.8%), Henan (8.7%), and Sichuan (7.0%) provinces, and 79% are from rural areas.
98.8% Of Shanghai's residents are of the Han Chinese ethnicity, while 1.2% belong to various minority groups. However, the minority population has grown by 165.54% since 2000, much faster than the overall population growth.
