THE PROPORTION OF SINGLE-CHILD FAMILIES IN CITIES, OUTSKIRTS AND RURAL AREAS OF CHINA 1980-2000

THE PROPORTION OF SINGLE-CHILD FAMILIES IN CITIES, OUTSKIRTS AND RURAL AREAS OF CHINA 1980-2000 7Wl5X

The provided bar chart illustrates the percentage of single-child families in urban areas, suburbs and countryside of China over a 20-year period, starting from 1980. In general, over the given period, the percentages of only-child family units in three areas experienced an upward trend. There were great differences in the data of single-child families in the countryside compared with those of the other regions. A closer look at the data reveals that the figure for one-offspring families in cities accounted for 50%, as opposed to 40% in suburbs. Meanwhile, the proportion of families having one child in rural areas was only 10% this year. In the next 10 years, the tendency to have only one child in urban areas went up sharply to 95%. This trend continuously increased slightly to a peak of 100% in the final 10 years. Likewise, the percentage of one child family units in the outskirts witnessed a considerable rise during the 1980-2000 period and marked nearly similar quantities with cities, at 100% in 2000. In a similar way, the figure for only-child families in rural areas climbed slowly to 20% throughout the first 10 years, followed by a dramatic rise of 50% in the end of the period.
