As of 2023, the bulk of the Chinese population was aged between 25 and 59 years, amounting to around half of the population. A breakdown of the population by broad age groups reveals that around 61.3 percent of the total population was in working age between 16 and 59 years in 2023. Age cohorts below 25 years were considerably smaller, although there was a slight growth trend in recent years. Population development in China Population development in China over the past decades has been strongly influenced by political and economic factors. After a time of high fertility rates during the Maoist regime, China introduced birth-control measures in the 1970s, including the so-called one-child policy. The fertility rate dropped accordingly from around six children per woman in the 1960s to below two at the end of the 20th century. At the same time, life expectancy increased consistently. In the face of a rapidly aging society, the government gradually lifted the one-child policy after 2012, finally arriving at a three-child policy in 2021. However, like in most other developed countries nowadays, people in China are reluctant to have more than one or two children due to high costs of living and education, as well as changed social norms and private values. China’s top-heavy age pyramid The above-mentioned developments are clearly reflected in the Chinese age pyramid. The age cohorts between 30 and 39 years are the last two larger age cohorts. The cohorts between 15 and 24, which now enter childbearing age, are decisively smaller, which will have a negative effect on the number of births in the coming decade. When looking at a gender distribution of the population pyramid, a considerable gender gap among the younger age cohorts becomes visible, leaving even less room for growth in birth figures.

In 2023, approximately 127.1 million people lived in Guangdong province in China. That same year, only about 3.65 million people lived in the sparsely populated highlands of Tibet. Regional differences in China China is the world’s most populous country, with an exceptional economic growth momentum. The country can be roughly divided into three regions: Western, Eastern, and Central China. Western China covers the most remote regions from the sea. It also has the highest proportion of minority population and the lowest levels of economic output. Eastern China, on the other hand, enjoys a high level of economic development and international corporations. Central China lags behind in comparison to the booming coastal regions. In order to accelerate the economic development of Western and Central Chinese regions, the PRC government has ramped up several incentive plans such as ‘Rise of Central China’ and ‘China Western Development’. Economic power of different provinces When observed individually, some provinces could stand an international comparison. Jiangxi province, for example, a medium-sized Chinese province, had a population size comparable to Argentina or Spain in 2023. That year, the GDP of Zhejiang, an eastern coastal province, even exceeded the economic output of the Netherlands. In terms of per capita annual income, the municipality of Shanghai reached a level close to that of the Czech Republik. Nevertheless, as shown by the Gini Index, China’s economic spur leaves millions of people in dust. Among the various kinds of economic inequality in China, regional or the so-called coast-inland disparity is one of the most significant. Posing as evidence for the rather large income gap in China, the poorest province Heilongjiang had a per capita income similar to that of Sri Lanka that year.

The China County-Level Data on Population (Census) and Agriculture, Keyed To 1:1M GIS Map consists of census, agricultural economic, and boundary data for the administrative regions of China for 1990. The census data includes urban and rural residency, age and sex distribution, educational attainment, illiteracy, marital status, childbirth, mortality, immigration (since 1985), industrial/economic activity, occupation, and ethnicity. The agricultural economic data encompasses rural population, labor force, forestry, livestock and fishery, commodities, equipment, utilities, irrigation, and output value. The boundary data are at a scale of one to one million (1:1M) at the county level. This data set is produced in collaboration with the University of Washington as part of the China in Time and Space (CITAS) project, University of California-Davis China in Time and Space (CITAS) project, and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN).

This paper examines the spatial distribution pattern and influencing factors of Martial Arts Schools (MASs) based on Baidu map data and Geographic Information System (GIS) in China. Using python to obtain the latitude and longitude data of the MASs through Baidu Map API, and with the help of ArcGIS (10.7) to coordinate information presented on the map of China. By harnessing the geographic latitude and longitude data for 492 MASs across 31 Provinces in China mainland as of May 2024, this study employs a suite of analytical tools including nearest neighbor analysis, kernel density estimation, the disequilibrium index, spatial autocorrelation, and geographically weighted regression analysis within the ArcGIS environment, to graphically delineate the spatial distribution nuances of MASs. The investigation draws upon variables such as martial arts boxings, Wushu hometowns, intangible cultural heritage boxings of Wushu, population education level, Per capita disposable income, and population density to elucidate the spatial distribution idiosyncrasies of MASs. (1) The spatial analytical endeavor unveiled a Moran’s I value of 0.172, accompanied by a Z-score of 1.75 and a P-value of 0.079, signifying an uneven and clustered distribution pattern predominantly concentrated in provinces such as Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Hunan, and Sichuan. (2) The delineation of MASs exhibited a prominent high-density core centered around Shandong, flanked by secondary high-density clusters with Hunan and Sichuan at their heart. (3) Amongst the array of variables dissected to explain the spatial distribution traits, the explicative potency of ‘martial arts boxings’, ‘Wushu hometowns’, ‘intangible cultural heritage boxings of Wushu’, ‘population education level’, ‘Per capita disposable income’, and ‘population density’ exhibited a descending trajectory, whilst ‘educational level of the populace’ inversely correlated with the geographical dispersion of MASs. (4) The entrenched regional cultural ethos significantly impacts the spatial layout of martial arts institutions, endowing them with distinct regional characteristics.
