Per capita gross domestic product in Macao amounted to around ****** U.S. dollars in that year, ranking first among cities in the Greater Bay Area. The Greater Bay Area in China The political concept of the Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area was introduced to the public in 2017 and further implemented by jointly signed agreements in the following years. It aims at integrating the special administrative regions of Macao and Hong Kong into the Chinese mainland and boosting the economy of all participating cities in the Pearl River Delta. The development plan for the Greater Bay Area is part of a national Chinese initiative to promote several economic city clusters in China. On the Chinese mainland, nine cities are part of the Greater Bay Area region, all of them located in Guangdong province: Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Foshan, Zhongshan, Dongguan, Huizhou, Jiangmen, and Zhaoqing. In the long run, the joint plan intends to develop the region into the world's largest and economically most successful Bay Area. Per capita GDP in the Greater Bay Area In terms of per capita GDP, the more mature economies of Macao and Hong Kong are still ahead of mainland Chinese cities in the Greater Bay Area, although Shenzhen and Guangzhou belong to the most developed cities in the whole of mainland China. However, growth rates on the mainland are considerably higher than in Hong Kong and Macao. This is especially true for Shenzhen, which is famous for its past economic boom and has developed into a bustling high-tech location, home to the well-known computer and internet giants Huawei and Tencent.

Per capita gross domestic product (GDP) of cities in China varies tremendously, mainly depending on the location of the city. Cities with the highest per capita GDP are mainly to be found in coastal provinces in East China and in South China, like Guangdong province. The poorest cities are located in the still less developed western parts of China, like Gansu province, or in the Chinese rust belt in Northeastern China, like Heilongjiang province.
In 2023, the annual per capita gross domestic product (GDP) of Chongqing municipality in China amounted to about 94,100 yuan, up from approximately 89,000 yuan in the previous year. As the administrative area of Chongqing municipality is quite huge and includes many smaller cities and villages, the per capita GDP of the central urban areas is much higher than total per capita GDP of the municipality.
Out of all 50 states, New York had the highest per-capita real gross domestic product (GDP) in 2023, at 90,730 U.S. dollars, followed closely by Massachusetts. Mississippi had the lowest per-capita real GDP, at 39,102 U.S. dollars. While not a state, the District of Columbia had a per capita GDP of more than 214,000 U.S. dollars. What is real GDP? A country’s real GDP is a measure that shows the value of the goods and services produced by an economy and is adjusted for inflation. The real GDP of a country helps economists to see the health of a country’s economy and its standard of living. Downturns in GDP growth can indicate financial difficulties, such as the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, when the U.S. GDP decreased by 2.5 percent. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on U.S. GDP, shrinking the economy 2.8 percent. The U.S. economy rebounded in 2021, however, growing by nearly six percent. Why real GDP per capita matters Real GDP per capita takes the GDP of a country, state, or metropolitan area and divides it by the number of people in that area. Some argue that per-capita GDP is more important than the GDP of a country, as it is a good indicator of whether or not the country’s population is getting wealthier, thus increasing the standard of living in that area. The best measure of standard of living when comparing across countries is thought to be GDP per capita at purchasing power parity (PPP) which uses the prices of specific goods to compare the absolute purchasing power of a countries currency.
In 2023, Shanghai was the city with the largest GDP in China, reaching a value added of approximately 4.7 trillion yuan. The four Chinese first-tier cites Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou had by far the strongest economic performance. Development of Chinese cities Rapid urbanization and economic growth have reshaped all Chinese cities since the economic opening up of China. While the first-tier cities have overall benefitted most from this development, the last two decades have seen many second-tier cities catching up. For many years already, growth rates in Qingdao, Hangzhou, Changsha, and Zhengzhou have been higher than in Shanghai or Beijing.This development was driven by lower costs in smaller cities, a specialization of their economies, and political measures to support inland cities and ease the pressure on the largest municipalities. Today, per capita GDP in cities such as Suzhou, Nanjing, and Shenzhen is already higher than in Beijing or Shanghai. Future perspectives Competition between cities will further change China’s urban landscape in the future. Medium-sized cities that can provide an attractive economic environment have the potential to grow their economy at a faster pace, attract immigration, and further increase their relative importance. Cities that are losing their competitive edge, however, like Shenyang, Dalian, and other cities in the northeastern rustbelt, are increasingly confronted by economic stagnation and demographic decline.

In 2024, the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita of Beijing municipality amounted to around ******* yuan, up from ******* yuan in 2015. Beijing is the capital city of China and after Shanghai the second largest city in the country. Per capita GDP development in Beijing Beijing saw an amazingly steady development of per capita GDP over the last decades, with nominal figures roughly doubling over the last ten years and exceeding ****** U.S. dollars for the first time in 2017. When compared on a national provincial and municipal level, Beijing displays the highest per capita GDP figures in China. From a city perspective, only very few Chinese cities indicate per capita GDP values on a comparable or higher level. Compared to other countries in the Asian Pacific region, Beijing’s per capita GDP is in the middle field and still considerably lower than the national average in developed East Asian countries. People’s income situation in Beijing As with per capita GDP, disposable income per person living in Beijing improved steadily over time. Real growth rates of disposable income slowed down in recent years but still indicated a robust positive development. Although overall consumer price inflation was consistently low in Beijing, prices for housing, child-related services, and eating out exploded over the years, leaving the impression for many lower income families that life in Beijing is no longer affordable.
