he pie charts shown represent the comparison on the spendings of the urban chinese people across categories in 1995 and 2011.
In 1995, the top four sectors with maximum expenditure was food with 50%, clothing with 14%, education (recreation) with 10 % and residential with 8%
However, the top four sectors with maximum expenditure in 2011 was food with only 36%, transportation with 14%, education (recreation) at 12% and clothing with 11%
From the above pointers, we notice that food, clothing and education are in the top three for both 1995 and 2011 but the percentage of consumption differs.
The rest of the categories in 1995 (consumption wise) are as follows- housing facilities is fifth with 7%, followed by transportation with 5% and medicine & others are together with 3%
Similarly for 2011, fifth category is a tie between medicine and housing with 7% each, followed by others with 3%
In conclusion, we notice the shift in priorities of the urban chinese people when it comes to their spending habits in 1995 vs 2011.
