In 2015, the migrant population was generally concentrated in the economically developed eastern coastal provinces and the densely populated inland provinces. There were seven major provinces/municipality to which a total of 120 million people had migrated, namely Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Shandong, Fujian and Shanghai.
