Rural-urban Migration

Today, China is home to over 100 million rural-urban migrants, and many more millions of rural dwellers are expected to flood into Chinese cities in the coming decades. There are a variety of factors that influence people to move or relocate from China's countryside to its cities. In my opinion, the three main reasons for rural-urban migration are the better employment prospects, superior education opportunities and higher standard of living that metropolitan areas provide their inhabitants.

The main reason that so many villagers migrate into China's cities is that they hope, and expect, to obtain better job opportunities and higher wages. This expectation is not without merit. By conservative estimates, over 50 million of China's rural dwellers have annual incomes that fall below 1,000 yuan. In contrast, blue-collar workers in Beijing and Shanghai typically earn at least 10,000 yuan per year. The primary concern of rural dwellers living near or below the poverty line is for their own economic well-being. As a result, they are willing to travel vast distances to seek a livelihood along China's more affluent and populous eastern coast.

Another key reason that many Chinese people leave their towns or villages behind is to pursue education in the city. Although primary and secondary schools can be found throughout rural China, rarely are they as sophisticated as those in the city. Urban schools tend to have well-qualified teaching staffs and high-standard facilities that some rural schools lack. Parents, eager to ensure that their children receive the best education possible, are willing to relocate to the big city, assuming they can afford to do so. Moreover, because universities are non-existent in the Chinese countryside, young rural dwellers wishing to pursue a higher education have no choice but to migrate to China's larger urban regions.

Aside from economic and education-related factors, the higher standard of living in cities is another important reason why rural dwellers are attracted to China's urban centers. Metropolitan areas offer better healthcare, including more hospitals and trained physicians, than is typically available in the countryside. In addition, urban areas also boast a more robust public transportation system, including an extensive network of bus routes and, in many cities, subway lines. Finally, cities provide a host of cultural and recreational facilities, such as museums, theaters and art galleries, which are rarely found in small towns and villages.

In conclusion, there is no one factor that is solely responsible for the influx of rural dwellers into Chinese cities. Rather, several factors, most notably employment and education opportunities as well as the higher standard of living, combine to promote and sustain the flow of rural-urban migration in China. However, while the motivations of individual migrants may differ, every newcomer to the big city shares the same dream for a better life and brighter future.
