Abstract:

The population suburbanization is a new trend in the population development of big cities in our country. Since 1990 Shanghai has entered into the stage of population suburbanization. The majority of moving to suburban belong to ordinary urban people who live on their wages. In the coming twenty years the population suburbanization will be further strengthened. The population of the central city in Shanghai will reduce half; most of them will move to the outskirts.

Key words: Shanghai, urban population, population distribution, suburbanization
