Changzhou, as an important economic center in the Yangtze River Delta, is developing at a rapid pace. Radiated by the two major cities of Shanghai and Nanjing, although slightly inferior to Suzhou and Wuxi, the overall economic volume has maintained a good momentum of development. Although development has slowed down in the past two years, it still maintains steady development.
In addition to traditional industries such as textiles and machinery manufacturing, Changzhou still maintains its advantages, and its motorcycle manufacturing, steel, flooring, lighting and other industries have suddenly emerged. More advanced robots, wind and solar energy new energy bases, and world-leading products will also be unveiled.
In addition to focusing on the development of industry, agriculture and sideline industries, Changzhou also focuses on creating a tourism city image. The transportation facilities are convenient and complete.
In summary, Changzhou’s economic development prospects are bright.
Changzhou is a livable city, and there is no doubt about this. As for Changzhou's future development space, it will be determined by a variety of factors. As an ordinary citizen, there is no need to do too much research on the future of the city. Many things depend on the positioning and top-level design of Changzhou by Jiangsu Province and even the central government. Personally, I think Changzhou belongs to a steady development model. Although the growth rate is not as fast as that of Suzhou, Wuxi and several newly emerging prefecture-level cities in northern Jiangsu, Changzhou has outstanding people and its ability to withstand the economic crisis cannot be underestimated. In the long run, once some special opportunity arises, Changzhou may become a blockbuster!
Changzhou turns out to be a livable city. As a Changzhou native, I think I won’t be wrong in my understanding.
It turns out that Changzhou is better than Suzhou in everything, Wuxi started later, and township industry started later than Wuxi. When Suzhou had the Singapore Industrial Park (in the early 1990s), where was the Changzhou Economic Development Zone?
Later, Changzhou caught up, and it was not as bad as Zhenjiang, but the gap was already there. Finally, Wu Jin below was able to live up to his expectations, and Su Xichang did not forget Changzhou.
The highlight of Changzhou lies in its municipal engineering. To put it bluntly, its transportation planning is very reasonable. The BRT bus system in the city has fast transportation and elevated highways all over the city. The Qingyang Road Expressway has gone straight to Xueyan, so citizens will not have to suffer from congestion when traveling. In addition, Route 232S connects Taizhou in northern Jiangsu to the north, Route 342S connects to Wuxi to the east, and Route 230S connects to Yixing in the south, leading directly to Huzhou. Secondly, housing prices were moderate in the past few years, making it a livable city.
But housing prices have skyrocketed this year, more than doubling, directly to Wuxi housing prices. Why? Is GDP failing? Need real estate support? unknown. But in fact, there are more and more communities near the subway and around the Gehu Lake. It has nothing to do with supply and demand. People are not getting rich either, so they are really worried about the price of housing. . .
So from the perspective of a local, Changzhou is changing from a livable city to a less livable city.
The city of Changzhou has an indescribable feeling. When I meet people in Changzhou, especially young people, they all have a special sense of pride, and they work very hard, are very striving for progress, and are never lazy or slack off. Generally speaking, Changzhou makes people feel that the people are rich and friendly to people in general. What is unimaginable is Changzhou's "food". It has never been praised, but eating in Changzhou is a very pleasant experience. It is not as sweet as Wuxi next door, nor is it as rustic as Zhenjiang and Nanjing. The bowl of tofu soup in the morning is unique. The soup dumplings are not as famous as Wuxi, but they are very delicious. The dishes in the restaurant are also very delicate. To be honest, I like Changzhou very much. The only shortcoming is that Changzhou can be regarded as a thousand-year-old city, but there are too few historical monuments left, because Changzhou was demolished too hard when Wang Weicheng was mayor, but Changzhou itself has not many historical remains from the past. Changzhou should be better based on its current development. Now, if Changzhou does not count the counties and cities under its jurisdiction (Jintan was changed to a new district soon, and there is also Liyang), just looking at the urban area, it is by no means weaker than the urban areas of Suzhou and Wuxi!
How about Changzhou, Jiangsu? Ancient and simple, solemn and fresh, clean and bright, friendly and kind, this is the true portrayal of Changzhou.
The ancient Grand Canal runs through Changzhou. It is ancient and sacred. People on both sides of the canal are simple and kind generation after generation. Changzhou has broad prospects for future development. Changzhou people are sincere. Changzhou has driven many provinces and cities. Many people come to Changzhou to work and start businesses. Migrant households, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei, Anhui... are all brothers from all over the world. Working brings huge wealth to the company, and also brings benefits to the friends who are struggling. Changzhou has the advantage of favorable weather, location and people, and its consumption concept is lower than that of surrounding cities. It is a living space suitable for farmers. The water and soil bring a different nostalgia. Those who are destined to be grateful to Changzhou. They have stayed in Changzhou for more than ten years. Changzhou people will never forget the feelings of Changzhou.
Changzhou has a developed industry. It has enriched farmers through industry and mobilized many migrant workers with work. It has raised money bags and enriched merchants through industry, which has stimulated the towns and villages around the country. Changzhou's tourism industry is booming, the eco-tourism industry has a promising future, traffic is civilized and regulated, and urban sanitation is the icing on the cake. There is a thriving scene everywhere, passenger transportation is standardized and orderly, civilized and polite like a family, Changzhou is good, I am optimistic about you. Net map.
Changzhou is a very nice city. It's just that there are too many star cities along the Shanghai-Nanjing Line. Shanghai, Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Nanjing, plus Nantong and Yangzhou on the other side of the Yangtze River, make Changzhou buried in the stars.
In fact, Changzhou has developed industry and commerce and a large city scale. It has always been one of the three star cities in southern Jiangsu, Su, Wuxi and Changzhou. Changzhou has reasonable urban planning, complete infrastructure, grand urban construction, developed transportation, complete sea, land and air transportation, and convenient life for citizens.
Changzhou has developed industry and commerce and has always had a business tradition. In addition, there are many township enterprises and many star enterprises. Later, Changzhou's economy transformed, investment was attracted, and there were many foreign-invested enterprises. Wujin County under Changzhou has always been among the top 100 counties in China until it was divided into districts.
Therefore, Changzhou’s development level, foundation, and development prospects are very good.
Currently, Changzhou is the fourth most developed city in Jiangsu. The top three are Wuxi, Suzhou and Nanjing, and it is ahead of Nantong, Xuzhou, Yancheng and Yangzhou. Changzhou Metro is already under construction and will soon become the fourth/fifth city in Jiangsu to have a subway.
It’s really boring to see a lot of answers upstairs that I don’t know if they were pasted by Baidu search. Changzhou, on the Shanghai-Nanjing line, can be regarded as the most livable city.
1. The transportation in Changzhou is very convenient on the Shanghai-Nanjing Line. Except for traffic jams in the morning and evening peaks, there are usually no problems, especially the subway that will be opened soon.
2. The housing prices in Changzhou, as on the Shanghai-Nanjing line, are quite low, basically only about 10,000. Of course, if it weren’t for the national bailout money in 2016, it would eventually flow into real estate, causing housing prices to skyrocket. It has increased. It used to be only 5,000, and it was only over 6,000 next to Hongmei Park. Now it is more than 10,000! What’s even more interesting is that Nanjing and Changzhou will definitely be connected by intercity high-speed rail. By then, I don’t know if the price will rise to tens of thousands!
3. Changzhou’s gourmet food ranks first on the Shanghai-Nanjing line. Refutation will not be accepted!
4. The tourism environment in Changzhou is many times higher than that in Suzhou. Most parks are free of charge, and the prices for required tickets are very affordable. You can have fun and, of course, have fun. The valley is still relatively expensive, with an average price of 300 per capita. Xiaohuangshan Scenic Area will soon be developed, and it is also a good place!
5. The pace of life in Changzhou is relatively slow, making it suitable for elderly care!
As an authentic Changzhou native, these are the 4 reasons why Changzhou is the best on the Shanghai-Nanjing Line. Unfortunately, Changzhou’s air, medical care, and education are still relatively poor. If your children want to grow up, they still have to go to big cities like Nanjing and Shanghai!
Common people talk about medicine, food, housing and transportation, whether it is livable or not. So don’t talk about GDP, it’s just a statistical number. Of course, Changzhou is not bad either per capita or in total. Excluding county-level cities, the GDP of prefecture-level city Changzhou ranks behind Wuxi and Nanjing and Suzhou. Changzhou prefecture-level city is absolutely powerful.
Some background. In the future, China will focus on building three regions: the Pearl River Delta Greater Bay Area, the Yangtze River Delta Shanghai Metropolitan Area, and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. The first two positioning goals are definitely at the international level. As one pole of the Yangtze River Delta, the urban integration of Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou will be the key development target in Jiangsu.
The geographical location is 10 minutes from Wuxi high-speed rail to the east, 20 minutes to Suzhou and 50 minutes to Shanghai, 19 minutes to Zhenjiang to the west, and 32 minutes to Nanjing. With such a dense density, traveling is quite convenient.
OK, last month we started construction of five intercity railways along the Yangtze River, which are owned by Changzhou, Shanghai-Nanjing intercity, Shanghai-Nanjing Railway, Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, Nanjing-Hangzhou high-speed railway, and intercity railways along the Yangtze River. This density is except for southern Jiangsu. Few cities in the country have this condition. The latest plan for urban transportation is 7 rail transit. The first phase of construction, Line 1, will open to traffic next year, and Line 2 will open to traffic the year after that. Early next year, the second round of rail transit construction will be applied to improve the urban loop rail transit.
To live in Changzhou, newly graduated college students can apply for public rental housing. Changzhou Longcheng Talent Program is a few years earlier than Nanjing. If you are a returnee from overseas, you will receive housing subsidies. The current average price of residential buildings is around 12,000, which is a medium level in the province. Except for Suqian and Lianyungang in northern Jiangsu, prefecture-level cities are basically around 15,000. Compared with Suzhou’s average price of 25,000 to 40,000 in Nanjing and Shanghai’s 65,000, Changzhou is still livable.
In terms of medicine, Changzhou’s nine tertiary-level hospitals are among the top three in Jiangsu prefecture-level cities.
In conclusion, from a national perspective, southern Jiangsu is definitely a livable city, and Changzhou is no exception. In the next 20 years, Changzhou will develop even greater, thank you!
Personally, I think it is quite livable. The city is well planned, the transportation is convenient, the public transportation system is nationally famous, and the subway is about to open to traffic. Housing prices are currently relatively low in southern Jiangsu, and the pressure of life is relatively low. Compared with ordinary people, it is still relatively affordable. Rich, many places in the countryside are richer than people in the city! Of course, the disadvantages of small cities are that there are fewer employment opportunities than those in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and there are fewer opportunities! But the pressure of life is not as high as in other places. You can buy a house with a down payment of 200,000-300,000! The development potential is not bad, but there is a lack of large enterprises and a small inflow of population. However, private township enterprises are developed, and the economic pillar is not centered on real estate! Overall, it’s suitable for living! You can live well with a monthly salary of 8k! However, I personally feel that no matter how well the city develops or how rich it is, it has nothing to do with you. The main thing is that you have to be able to make money!
Changzhou has had its glory days, but has also experienced setbacks in the past 20 years. In terms of urban construction, science, education, culture, and environmental appearance, Changzhou is also first-rate in the country, and it is not inferior to other cities in the Yangtze River Delta. The main question is about future development potential. I think it will be difficult for Changzhou to maintain its current status in terms of economic aggregate. Suxi was there before, and Nantong, Xuzhou and Yancheng are catching up. Since Changzhou’s geographical space and population base are relatively small, (Second to last in the province). Compared with Yancheng in Nantong, northern Jiangsu, Changzhou has less room for development. Northern Jiangsu has huge development potential with improved infrastructure and policy support. As for Su Xining, it would be good if Changzhou can narrow the gap a little. It is impossible to overtake! Personally, I think the biggest problem in the development of Changzhou is that it has not established large industries. In the past few decades, Changzhou has been content with providing various industrial supporting facilities and various singles champions, instead of developing large-scale industries. This makes it difficult to cultivate Out of big business. Changchai, which Changzhou is proud of, regrettably did not develop into the fields of high-power power machinery and automotive engineering. Until now, it is still spinning in the small diesel industry and has been reduced to a small and medium-sized enterprise. There are many such examples. Changzhou lacks industries such as automobiles, home appliances, electronic information, and large-scale chemicals. The number of large companies is seriously insufficient, and there are not many high-level technology companies. It is very difficult to rely on small and medium-sized enterprises to boost GDP.
Conclusion: It is not easy for Changzhou’s economy to maintain its current position in the province, and it is difficult to further improve it. Of course, in terms of per capita comparison, Changzhou is still very ahead!
