District comparison

Sixteen districts are not one ranking.
They combine different urban functions.

Population, industry, and public services appear side by side to show concentration in central districts and manufacturing capacity in outer districts.

Scale of demandPudong · 5.786 million people

The city's largest market for aggregate demand, with both industrial and service revenue among the leaders.

Population mobilitySongjiang · 55.3%

The highest migrant share makes employment, renting, and public services more sensitive to mobility.

Location effectHuangpu · 218 physicians per 10,000

This mainly reflects the concentration of city-level hospitals, not resources exclusive to local residents.
