    Description

    This statistic shows the inequality of income distribution in China from 2005 to 2023 based on the Gini Index. In 2023, China reached a score of ************ points. The Gini Index is a statistical measure that is used to represent unequal distributions, e.g. income distribution. It can take any value between 1 and 100 points (or 0 and 1). The closer the value is to 100 the greater is the inequality. 40 or 0.4 is the warning level set by the United Nations. The Gini Index for South Korea had ranged at about **** in 2022. Income distribution in China The Gini coefficient is used to measure the income inequality of a country. The United States, the World Bank, the US Central Intelligence Agency, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development all provide their own measurement of the Gini coefficient, varying in data collection and survey methods. According to the United Nations Development Programme, countries with the largest income inequality based on the Gini index are mainly located in Africa and Latin America, with South Africa displaying the world's highest value in 2022. The world's most equal countries, on the contrary, are situated mostly in Europe. The United States' Gini for household income has increased by around ten percent since 1990, to **** in 2023. Development of inequality in China Growing inequality counts as one of the biggest social, economic, and political challenges to many countries, especially emerging markets. Over the last 20 years, China has become one of the world's largest economies. As parts of the society have become more and more affluent, the country's Gini coefficient has also grown sharply over the last decades. As shown by the graph at hand, China's Gini coefficient ranged at a level higher than the warning line for increasing risk of social unrest over the last decade. However, the situation has slightly improved since 2008, when the Gini coefficient had reached the highest value of recent times.

    Description

    Rising income inequality challenges economic and social stability in developing countries. For China, the fastest-growing global digital economy, it could be an effective tool to promote inclusive development, narrowing urban–rural income disparity. It investigates the role of digital financial inclusion (DFI) in narrowing the urban–rural income gap. The study uses panel data from 52 counties in Zhejiang Province, China, from 2014 to 2020. The results show that the development of DFI significantly reduces rural–urban and rural income inequality. The development of DFI helps optimize industrial structure and upgrade the internal structure of agriculture, facilitating income growth for people in rural areas. Such effects are greater in poorer counties. Our findings provide insights into why rapid DFI and the narrowing of the rural–urban income disparity exist in China. Moreover, our results provide clear policy implications on how to reduce the disparity. The most compelling suggestion is that promoting the optimization of industrial structure through DFI is crucial for narrowing the urban–rural income gap.

    Description

    In 2024, the average annual per capita disposable income of rural households in China was approximately ****** yuan, roughly ** percent of the income of urban households. Although living standards in China’s rural areas have improved significantly over the past 20 years, the income gap between rural and urban households is still large. Income increase of China’s households From 2000 to 2020, disposable income per capita in China increased by around *** percent. The fast-growing economy has inevitably led to the rapid income increase. Furthermore, inflation has been maintained at a lower rate in recent years compared to other countries. While the number of millionaires in China has increased, many of its population are still living in humble conditions. Consequently, the significant wealth gap between China’s rich and poor has become a social problem across the country. However, in recent years rural areas have been catching up and disposable income has been growing faster than in the cities. This development is also reflected in the Gini coefficient for China, which has decreased since 2008. Urbanization in China The urban population in China surpassed its rural population for the first time in 2011. In fact, the share of the population residing in urban areas is continuing to increase. This is not surprising considering remote, rural areas are among the poorest areas in China. Currently, poverty alleviation has been prioritized by the Chinese government. The measures that the government has taken are related to relocation and job placement. With the transformation and expansion of cities to accommodate the influx of city dwellers, neighboring rural areas are required for the development of infrastructure. Accordingly, land acquisition by the government has resulted in monetary gain by some rural households.

    Description
    About this dataset

    Context

    The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in China. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

    Key observations: Insights from 2023

    Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In China, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $58,750 for males and $30,313 for females.

    These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in China. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 52 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 48%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the city of China.

    - Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In China, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $62,188, while females earned $69,375

    Surprisingly, within the subset of full-time workers, women earn a higher income than men, earning 1.12 dollars for every dollar earned by men. This suggests that within full-time roles, womens median incomes significantly surpass mens, contrary to broader workforce trends.

    Description

    Income inequality is a good indicator reflecting the quality of people's livelihood. There are many studies on the determinants of income inequality. However, few have studied the impacts of industrial agglomeration on income inequality, and even fewer have studied the spatial correlation of income inequality. The goal of this paper is to investigate the impact of China’s industrial agglomeration on income inequality from a spatial perspective. Using data on China’s 31 provinces from 2003 to 2020 and the spatial panel Durbin model, our results show that industrial agglomeration and income inequality present an inverted “U-shape” relationship, proving that they are non-linear changes. As the degree of industrial agglomeration increases, income inequality will rise; after it reaches a certain value, income inequality will drop. Therefore, the Chinese government and enterprises had better pay attention to the spatial distribution of industrial agglomeration, thereby reducing China's regional income inequality.

    The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in China town.

    Key observations: Insights from 2023

    Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In China town, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $54,295 for males and $31,032 for females.

    These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in China town. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 57 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 43%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the town of China town.

    - Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In China town, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $58,056, while females earned $43,750, leading to a 25% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 75 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This analysis indicates a widening gender pay gap, showing a substantial income disparity where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same roles.

    Surprisingly, the gender pay gap percentage was higher across all roles, including non-full-time employment, for women compared to men. This suggests that full-time employment offers a more equitable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in China town.

    Description

    In 2024, the average annual per capita disposable income of households in China amounted to approximately 41,300 yuan. Annual per capita income in Chinese saw a significant rise over the last decades and is still rising at a high pace. During the last ten years, per capita disposable income roughly doubled in China. Income distribution in China As an emerging economy, China faces a large number of development challenges, one of the most pressing issues being income inequality. The income gap between rural and urban areas has been stirring social unrest in China and poses a serious threat to the dogma of a “harmonious society” proclaimed by the communist party. In contrast to the disposable income of urban households, which reached around 54,200 yuan in 2024, that of rural households only amounted to around 23,100 yuan. Coinciding with the urban-rural income gap, income disparities between coastal and western regions in China have become apparent. As of 2023, households in Shanghai and Beijing displayed the highest average annual income of around 84,800 and 81,900 yuan respectively, followed by Zhejiang province with 63,800 yuan. Gansu, a province located in the West of China, had the lowest average annual per capita household income in China with merely 25,000 yuan. Income inequality in China The Gini coefficient is the most commonly used measure of income inequality. For China, the official Gini coefficient also indicates the astonishing inequality of income distribution in the country. Although the Gini coefficient has dropped from its high in 2008 at 49.1 points, it still ranged at a score of 46.5 points in 2023. The United Nations have set an index value of 40 as a warning level for serious inequality in a society.

    About this dataset

    Context

    The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in China township. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

    Key observations: Insights from 2023

    Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In China township, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $59,101 for males and $27,440 for females.

    These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in China township. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 46 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 54%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the township of China township.

    - Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In China township, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $82,611, while females earned $46,667, leading to a 44% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 56 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This level of income gap emphasizes the urgency to address and rectify this ongoing disparity, where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same employment roles.

    Remarkably, across all roles, including non-full-time employment, women displayed a similar gender pay gap percentage. This indicates a consistent gender pay gap scenario across various employment types in China township, showcasing a consistent income pattern irrespective of employment status.

    Description

    The objective of this study is to assess the effect of Internet use on the income disparity between rural households and to determine how Internet usage can be used to reduce this income gap. We use the Recentered Influence Function Regression (RIF) and data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) conducted by the China Social Science Survey (CSSS) center at Peking University to make the results of regression estimation more reliable. The results reveal that Internet use can make rural households’ income gap shrink considerably, and that the degree of non-farm employment among rural families has a mediating effect between Internet use and the income disparity of farm households. In addition, the Eastern region experiences a stronger mitigating effect from Internet use, whereas ethnic minorities find out no such mitigating effect. This study expands the scope of income disparity theory, provides new ideas for the construction of digital villages, and identifies new empirical evidence and decision-making grounds for improving the livelihoods of rural households and narrowing the income gap between rural households.

    Description

    Income disparity, spatial inequality, and urban-rural inequality are three fundamental issues affecting human social equality. The Chinese government considers addressing these three inequalities as crucial for achieving common prosperity. Therefore, in response to these inequalities, the income Gini coefficient, the population-weighted CV of nighttime light, and the urban-rural income ratio were integrated to construct a social equality index (SEI). This index reflects the overall degree of social inequality in China.The specific calculation method can be found in the related paper.

    Description

    BackgroundSince the reform and opening up, China’s urban and rural economic development has exhibited characteristics of imbalance, with the urban-rural income gap being the largest and most noticeable issue facing China’s socio-economic landscape. Alleviating and effectively resolving the urban-rural income disparity is crucial for achieving overall common prosperity. Therefore, this study provides insights for strategically narrowing the urban-rural income gap from the perspective of higher education investment.MethodsWe employ a panel fixed effects model to examine the basic regression, heterogeneity, mediating effects, and threshold effects. Simultaneously, we address the endogeneity issues in basic regression and mediating effects using the instrumental variable method. Additionally, we adopt the substitution of variables to ensure the robustness of the results.ResultsThis paper selects panel data from China’s eight major comprehensive economic zones from 2003 to 2021 for analysis. The findings reveal that, overall, higher education investment in China’s eight major comprehensive economic zones can narrow the urban-rural income gap. Specifically, higher education investment in 50% of these comprehensive economic zones—namely, the Northern Coastal Comprehensive Economic Zone, Eastern Coastal Comprehensive Economic Zone, Northeast Comprehensive Economic Zone, and Middle Yangtze River Comprehensive Economic Zone—can reduce the urban-rural income disparity. Conversely, higher education investment in the Middle Yellow River Comprehensive Economic Zone, Southern Coastal Comprehensive Economic Zone, Greater Southwest Comprehensive Economic Zone, and Greater Northwest Comprehensive Economic Zone has widened the urban-rural income gap. Additionally, higher education investment can affect the urban-rural income disparity through technological innovation. Overall, the impact of higher education investment on the urban-rural income gap in China’s eight major comprehensive economic zones is also influenced by the level of economic development, exhibiting an “inverted U-shaped” characteristic. This nonlinear impact varies across regions.ConclusionsIn conclusion, to narrow the urban-rural income gap across China’s eight major integrated economic zones, it is necessary to improve the mechanism for higher education investment in these zones. Strategies should be based on regional differences, tailored to local conditions, and implemented with a differentiated and precise approach to higher education development across regions. Emphasis should also be placed on the research and application of innovative technologies to achieve deep integration between urban and rural areas within China’s eight major integrated economic zones.
