Demographics of Shanghai
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2010 census put Shanghai's total population at 23,019,148, a growth of 37.53% from 16,737,734 in 2000.[4][5] 20.6 million of the total population, or 89.3%, are urban, and 2.5 million (10.7%) are rural.[6] Based on population of total administrative area, Shanghai is the second largest of the four direct-controlled municipalities of China, behind Chongqing, but is generally considered the largest Chinese city because Chongqing's urban population is much smaller.[7]
