21 Data News Laboratory summarized and compiled the economic data of 337 prefecture-level and above cities across the country, and obtained the "2020 Top 100 Urban GDP List".

Against the backdrop of the impact of the epidemic and the global economic downturn, the rapid recovery of cities has become an important driving force for my country's economic development.

1 Data News Laboratory summarized and compiled the economic data of 337 cities at the prefecture level and above (including states, regions, alliances, and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are not included, and the following are all collectively referred to as cities) (click to check the ranking of GDP in Chinese cities), and obtained the "2020 Top 100 Urban GDP List".

Statistics found that

  • trillion cities have increased to 23, Suzhou became the sixth city to exceed 2 trillion yuan, Dongguan is one step away from the trillion club, and then Dongguan is Yantai, Shandong and Changzhou, Jiangsu, with GDP last year of more than 780 billion. Among the top 10 cities, Nanjing surpassed Tianjin to enter the top ten for the first time, and Hangzhou surpassed Wuhan to advance one. The list of top 100 cities in
  • has not changed much. Yunnan Qujing , Fujian Longyan, Sichuan Yibin 3 new cities, including Qujing, among which Qujing has the first growth rate among the top 100 cities, reaching 6.6%; it also has the most rankings, with 12 rankings ahead.
  • is the top 100 list of
  • , and the Hohhot and Baotou in Inner Mongolia. Jiaozuo's GDP fell sharply by 20.6% year-on-year, falling from 96 in 2019 to 135 in 2020, a sharp drop of 39 places.
  • Regional economy is increasingly showing a team of confrontations. Among the 23 trillion-dollar cities, 8 cities belong to the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration ; 8 of the 9 cities in the Pearl River Delta have entered the top 100 list.
  • The recovery momentum of central and western cities is obvious, and coastal areas are greatly affected by foreign trade; compared with 2019, Guizhou and Yunnan have no cities, while Hunan has only one decline.
  • More than 90% of cities have positive growth rates, and Zhejiang Zhoushan leads the country, with GDP growth of 12.0% in 2020. Continuing the trend in 2019, about half of the top 20 cities with economic growth rate come from Guangxi and Yunnan.

The "14th Five-Year Plan" outline proposes to develop and expand urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas. Urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas with agglomeration effect have gradually become new driving force for economic development.

Top cities:

trillion GDP cities account for 38% of the total economic output of cities with a total of 1 trillion GDP cities in China have expanded to 23.

In 2006, Shanghai became the first city in my country to have a GDP of one trillion yuan. Subsequently, GDP trillion club continued to expand, new Quanzhou , Jinan, Hefei, Nantong , Xi'an and Fuzhou 6 cities were added in 2020. The number of trillion cities has increased to 23, and the total economic output of total accounts for about 38% of the country, bringing great vitality to my country's economic development. At the same time, Dongguan's total GDP in 2020 reached 965 billion yuan, one step away from trillions.

From the perspective of GDPTOP10, Yangtze River Delta has Shanghai, Suzhou, Nanjing and Hangzhou. Among them, Suzhou became the sixth city with a GDP exceeding 2 trillion yuan, Nanjing surpassed Tianjin and entered the top ten, and Hangzhou surpassed Wuhan to advance.

In addition to economic growth, population growth is also one of the important factors in the vitality of urban development. Currently, among the top ten cities in GDP, Nanjing only has less than ten million permanent residents. If the permanent population of the urban area is calculated, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Chongqing are megacities, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Wuhan and Nanjing are megacities, and the permanent population of Suzhou urban area alone is less than 5 million.

"hard core" urban agglomeration:

The Yangtze River Delta occupies 20 seats in the top 100 seats, and the Pearl River Delta per capita GDP 2 highest

national urban agglomeration is becoming an important part of the economic pattern.

The "14th Five-Year Plan" outline proposes to develop and strengthen urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas, promote the integrated development of urban agglomerations, and comprehensively form a "two horizontal and three vertical" urbanization strategic pattern. Among them, optimize and enhance urban agglomerations such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, the Chengdu-Chongqing, and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, develop and strengthen urban agglomerations such as the Shandong Peninsula, the Guangdong-Fujian-Zhejiang coastal areas, the Central Plains, the Guanzhong Plain, and the Beibu Gulf, and cultivate and develop urban agglomerations such as Harbin-Changhai, Central Liaoning, Central Liaoning, Central Shanxi, Guizhou-Central Yunnan, Hokkien-Bao-E-Yuan, Lanzhou-Xining, Ningxia along the Yellow River, and the northern slope of the Tianshan Mountains.

1 Data News Laboratory noticed that in addition to Jiangsu's Xuzhou , Huai'an, Lianyungang , Suqian , Guangxi Liuzhou and Jiangxi Ganzhou, the other 94 top 100 GDP cities are all located in the above 19 national-level urban agglomerations, among which Yangtze River Delta has 20 top 100 GDP cities and 8 trillion GDP cities, which has an absolute advantage in terms of quantity.

From the perspective of economic scale, among the 19 national urban agglomerations, the economic development of the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomerations is the most active. , the three major urban agglomerations, contain 48, which absorbs about 24 people with 5% of the country's land area and contributes nearly 40% of the total economic output.

It is not difficult to find that the urban hierarchy of the Yangtze River Delta is the most reasonable. With the newly promoted Hefei and Nantong, 8 cities have entered the GDP trillion club, gradually forming a virtuous pattern with Shanghai as the core driving, and building a five major metropolitan area of ​​Nanjing, Hangzhou, Hefei, Suzhou, Xi and Chang, and Ningbo .

In comparison, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration started late and the surrounding cities lacked basic strength, so it showed obvious polarization characteristics. In terms of total GDP, Beijing's GDP exceeded 3.6 trillion yuan in 2020, Tianjin exceeded 1.4 trillion yuan, while the rest of the cities were below 800 billion yuan.

The Pearl River Delta uses the "Temini" in Shenzhen and Guangzhou to drive and radiate to other cities. In 2020, the GDP of the nine cities in the Pearl River Delta exceeded 200 billion, and only , Zhaoqing did not enter the top 100 list. Zhaoqing ranks 122nd in the country in total GDP, up 2 places compared with 2019.

It is worth noting that although the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta are not the same magnitude in terms of the total permanent population and the total GDP, in 2019, the permanent population growth of the two major urban agglomerations was around 1.5 million, and all major cities showed positive growth. From the perspective of growth ratio, the Pearl River Delta is undoubtedly more attractive to population inflows.

Behind the sharp inflow of population in the Pearl River Delta is its continued leading per capita GDP. Statistics from the 21 Data News Laboratory found that the Pearl River Delta has the highest per capita GDP among all urban agglomerations. In 2019, the per capita GDP was 134,800 yuan, 8,700 yuan and 58,400 yuan higher than the Yangtze River Delta and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei respectively.

Economic acceleration:

Guangxi and Yunnan race, Zhoushan hit a new high in 12 years

Urban economic recovery has accelerated, becoming an important vitality for the rapid recovery of my country's economy.

According to statistics from the 21 Data News Laboratory, As of March 31, among the 319 cities that have disclosed their growth rate in 2020, the GDP growth rate of 292 cities was positive, accounting for more than 90%, and the growth rate of 225 cities exceeded the national growth rate (2.3%). And in the first half of last year, less than 60% of cities with positive economic growth were in the past year.

continued the good momentum in the first half of last year. Zhoushan, Zhejiang continued to lead the country with a growth rate of 12% last year and set a new high in 12 years. Zhoushan is located in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration and the two metropolitan areas of Shanghai and Ningbo. It has obvious location advantages. In recent years, it has taken advantage of the advantages of the free trade zone and the national oil reserve base to accelerate the development of the oil industry chain. Zhoushan Statistics Bureau stated that the first phase of the green petrochemical base reached full production in 2020, achieving an added value of 49.79 billion yuan in scale, an increase of 60.2% year-on-year, leading the country in growth rate, which is the main factor driving Zhoushan's economic growth against the trend.

Gansu known as China's nickel capital, Jinchang in 2020 grew by 8.7%, ranking second in the country. Jinchang has vigorously promoted the development strategy of a strong industrial city in recent years. In 2020, it achieved an industrial added value of 20.418 billion yuan, an increase of 11.6%; the added value of industrial manufacturing was 18.528 billion yuan, accounting for 51.7% of GDP.

Compared with the southeast, the central and western regions are less affected by the epidemic and the growth rate recovers faster. Among the cities with the top 20 economic growth rates, except for Zhoushan, Zhejiang, Ningde and Xiamen, the others all come from the central and western regions, mainly concentrated in the two provinces of Guangxi and Yunnan.

Among them, 6 cities in Guangxi have GDP growth rates above 6%, especially Wuzhou , Hezhou , and Guigang in the east of Guizhou area, which performed the most brilliantly. Wuzhou's growth rate reached 8% in 2020, ranking third in the country. As the pilot pilot zone for the eastern industrial integration of Guangxi connecting with Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area , Hezhou and Wuzhou have actively undertaken industrial transfers in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in recent years, and "Dongrong" has accelerated.

In recent years, Yunnan's economy has developed rapidly. Among the top 20 GDP growth rates, 9 cities came from Yunnan in 2019, and 4 cities were shortlisted in 2020, including Dehong , Nujiang , and Qujing and Chuxiong, located in the central Yunnan urban agglomeration. As the second largest city in Yunnan, Qujing's second and tertiary industries are relatively strong. In 2020, it achieved a regional GDP of 295.935 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.6%, advancing to the top 100 GDP list for the first time, ranking 93rd in the country in total GDP, up 12 places from 2019. The economic growth rate ranks third in Yunnan Province and ranks first in the top 100 list.
