CHINA GDP Per capita estimated in 2018 :$10,087

[Mista]

But according to you may be less than Dongguan's 13000 USD,let just say Shenzhen is with 12000 USD er capita,is this amount ok for you!?

Shenzhen's GDP is around $340b. With 20m people the per capita GDP is around $17K, slightly lower than Shanghai or Beijing of $19K.

That makes sense. Beijing's average wage is substantially higher than Shenzhen's.

No way Shenzhen's wage is so much lower than Beijing's if Shenzhen's GDP per capita is 50% higher than Beijing's like you said.

Whatever you say bro.

 

[Mista]

Whatever you say bro.

A good proxy to determine whether GDP is inflated (GDP 水分) is wages.

If you say that Shenzhen's GDP per is $27K, there is a good comparison with South Korea/Spain.

South Korea
GDP per capita: $30K
Average annual wage: $31.4K

Spain
GDP per capita: $28K
Average annual wage: $31.6K

https://stats.oecd.org/Index.aspx?DataSetCode=AV_AN_WAGE

An annual wage of $31K is around RMB18K per month. 自己做推测吧。

I do not want to meddle with the discussion. Just want to say your post was well presented.
Btw, your Chinese is beyond normal S'porean standard. Have you being study in China before?

 

[Adam WANG SHANGHAI MEGA]

The per capita GDP of Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is definitely more than $30,000, and the GDP of South Korea’s rural areas is certainly not $30,000.
You don't know how many billionaires are in Shenzhen and how much they earn per year.
Then please give us a GDP that you think is relatively normal in Shenzhen?
If Shenzhen does not have a GDP of 27,000 US dollars, I don't know how to calculate China's per capita GDP of 10,000 US dollars.

With 22 millions population,The GDP per capita of Shenzhen is around 14500 USD,wow,so high for a leading innovation center of China.

Thanks, but I don't think I used any sophisticated Chinese phrases here to deserve such a compliment.

I come from a Chinese-speaking family.

Based on the relatively lower wages compared to Beijing (with $19K GDP per capita), I would say it's around $17K.

($19K / 9240 x 8315 = $17.1K)

With 22 millions population,The GDP per capita of Shenzhen is around 14500 USD,wow,so high for a leading innovation center of China.

Shenzhen's GDP in 2017 is around $340 billion.

Shenzhen's gross domestic product is expected to grow 8.8 percent year-on-year to exceed 2.2 trillion yuan ($340 billion) in 2017, said mayor Chen Rugui in a government work report delivered Wednesday to the local people's congress as reported by China News Services.

The estimated effective population in Shenzhen is around 20 million.

今年3月21日开始，深圳市开展新一轮的“禁摩限电”整治，在4月5日的新闻通气会上，深圳交警总结到，交通乱象不治理，将会影响居住生活在深圳的2000万居民的舒适、安全出行。这里提到的深圳居民人数高达2000万人，远远超过深圳公布的常住人口数据。11月10日的《南方都市报》报道，截至2015年，深圳实际管理人口已突破2000万。

$340 billion / 20 million = $17K

So that roughly gives us a GDP per capita of around $17K.
This fits my estimation above based on wages.

More or less there.

Shenzhen's GDP per capita is definitely higher than that of Beijing and shanghai and taht of MY City Wuxi.
Well,you are free to make what ever comments you want.
We China afterall,has only 10087 USD in general.

My city of Wuxi is around 23000 USD with 6.6 millions people,according to your estimation,it should be 10 millions population and the per capita GDP of Wuxi should be 12000 or less.
I hope you know 苏锡常,苏州，无锡，常州，the three richest city in China among many.
If they only have 17000 USD,how come China GDP per capita could ever be 10000 USD?

1）
Thirty years ago, there was no city called Shenzhen.
Shenzhen is a young city. According to China's sixth national census data, the city's 0-14 years old accounted for 9.84%, 15-64 years old accounted for 88.40%; 65 years old and above accounted for 1.76%;
According to the latest 2015 1% population sampling survey data, 0-14 years old accounted for 13.40%, 15-64 years old accounted for 83.23%, and 65 years old and above accounted for 3.37%.
2）According to China's sixth national census data, Shanghai's population aged 0-14 is 8.6%, aged 15 to 64 is 81.3%; 65 years old and above is 10.1%. Shanghai did not publish the 1% population sampling census data for 2015, but Shanghai's population is very old. In 2014, Shanghai's retired employees participating in urban pension insurance exceeded 4.5 million, accounting for 18.6% of the resident population. 31.4% of the registered population.

I'm unfamiliar with Wuxi so I can't make an educated guess why Wuxi's wage is so low compared to its GDP per capita.

But wages is usually the best indicator. The average person care more about wages than GDP per capita anyway.

If they only have 12000 USD,how come China GDP per capita could ever be 10000 USD?

Not all cities are overestimated. For the example I gave above, Dongguan's (or other smaller cities in Guangdong) GDP per capita may be underestimated because of overestimation of effective population. Some may actually be working in Shenzhen instead of Dongguan.

And another notice to you,my wife salary is 6000RMB,but he get a bonus of 8000 RMB every three months.
My freind works for a China state-owned company,his salary is 3500 RMB,but he gets a Living allowance of 8000 RMB per month(do not tell other people).
I do not know ho to calculate the their wages any more.

If the salary data is real wage data, then you are right, but China's salary data, hahahaha. In fact, I earn $57,000 a year, but I never tell others how much I earn(well to chinese i know,here is ok), and I only say that I earn $20,000 a year.

That's some dubious job he's doing.

No,that is what china state-owned company do,low salary ,best other benifits,why you think all chiense students want to be offcials and state-owned company staff while they know the basic salary is very low ,because the other benifis are very high!

Yeah it's definitely possible. Many Chinese under-report their income to evade taxes, like Fan Bingbing and other celebrities.

The means and methods for billionaires people to hide their income are even more.
I can tell you with certainty that Shenzhen's per capita GDP will only be higher than 27,000 US dollars. However, China's per capita GDP of 10,000 US dollars is a quite true data.
The average GDP of Xinjiang has reached 7,000 US dollars. The average GDP of Tibet is 5,600 US dollars.
