On the reason why Wuhan's population increase in 2021 ranks first in the country, there are probably five reasons summarized as follows:
I. Behind the population growth is the rapid development of the local economy
In 2021, Wuhan's GDP increased by 12.2% year-on-year, investment increased by 12.9%, and consumption increased by 10.5%, all achieving double-digit growth. The rapid economic growth is due to the development of local real industry, Xiaomi Wuhan headquarters, TCL Central China regional headquarters, Tencent (Wuhan) digital industry headquarters and many other head enterprises stationed in Wuhan, 2021 Wuhan government to increase the extension of large enterprises to set up headquarters in the local efforts, trillion central enterprise China Three Gorges Group also moved its headquarters to Wuhan. The rapid development of the economy has directly led to the employment of the local population and the improvement of the welfare of enterprises. These are the main reasons for attracting people to Wuhan.
Secondly, Wuhan attaches great importance to the introduction of talent
First of all, Wuhan's settlement and employment policies are complete, and the demand for jobs in enterprises and institutions is very strong, which can satisfy the needs of different levels of talent. At the same time, the headquarters of major companies in Wuhan, and brought a large number of talents from all over the country, so that they are here to settle down, while Wuhan's own outstanding graduates to stay in the employment of Han has also become their primary choice. Multifaceted reasons for the massive influx of young people is a prerequisite for a city to maintain long-term population growth and economic development.
Three, the city's supporting measures are quite perfect, more suitable for people's daily life.
Wuhan is second only to Beijing and Shanghai in terms of the number of higher education institutions in the country, and the city's educational resources are excellent. More and more parents want to settle here in order to give their children better learning conditions in the future, in addition to the city's health care industry is also very developed, can give the elderly more security in their old age. Living in Wuhan is a great way to enjoy all the services and resources of a first-tier city without the stress of a fast-paced life. The location of Wuhan and the relatively low cost of housing compared to neighboring cities are attractive attractions for foreigners to settle down in Wuhan.
Fourth, the first tier of the big cities on the population control of the population growth is not before, to the second tier of the city provides more opportunities. China a long time ago is the first tier of China's big cities on the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen for the control of the population, mainly reflected in the settlement, which to a certain extent limits the scale of development of the big cities, to some of the second tier of the city of the good greater development space, in this regard, Wuhan, such as the capital city of the province on the performance of the extremely obvious. Allow people to move to the good place, give them to give more preferential policies and humane care is an important reason for the city to maintain vitality.Fifth, the original city ranking rivals last year special circumstances also have a certain relationship
Speaking of Wuhan's population growth can not fail to mention another city of Zhengzhou, know that at the end of 2020, Zhengzhou had a lead of 270,000 people for the first time to catch up with Wuhan to become the first city of the country's population inflow, the end of the data at the end of 2021, Wuhan again regained the top spot among central cities. This is directly related to the special situation of Zhengzhou in 2021. the July 2 heavy rainstorm disaster, causing major casualties and property damage, and then superimposed on the impact of the new crown epidemic, resulting in Zhengzhou in 2021 economic growth rate of only 4.7%. For this reason, the sector's population moved out of Zhengzhou, which is very similar to Wuhan in 2020, as we believe that the population ranking of Zhengzhou and Wuhan, the two cities may still be alternating phenomenon, the development of the two cities are resilient.
