China's migrating population saw a decline for the second consecutive year in 2024 - to 245 million - according to a report released by the National Health and Family Planning Commission.

根據國家衛計委近日發布的一份報告，2024年，我國流動人口總量連續第二年下降，總量為2.45億人。

Last year, China's migrating population decreased by 1.7 million from 2024, the report said.

該報告指出，相比2024年，去年我國的流動人口減少了170萬人。

Before 2024, the group had been growing, from 230 million in 2011 to a peak of 253 million in 2024.

在2024年之前，這一群體一直在增長，從2011年的2.3億人增長到峰值--2024年的2.53億人。

Over the past six years, the portion of all migrants who moved across provinces declined from nearly 70% in 2011 to less than 64% last year, while the percentage of those migrating to different cities within the same province rose from about 25% in 2011 to more than 27% last year, it said.

該報告稱，過去六年間，全國跨省流動人口比例由2011年的近70%降至2024年的不足64%，同期省內跨市流動人口比重則從約25%上升至逾27%。

Meanwhile, average age of migrants rose from 27.3 years to 29.8 years during the same period.

同時，流動人口的平均年齡由2011年的27.3歲增至2024年的29.8歲。

The monthly income of migrant workers increased by 15% annually, on average, between 2024 and last year, the report said.

報告指出，在2024年至2024年期間，就業流動人口的月收入年均增長15%。

The drop in numbers over the past two years is largely the result of major policies issued by the governments to encourage migrants to settle down in the cities where they work, said Wang Qian, head of the department of services and management for migrant population of the commission.

國家衛計委流動人口計劃生育服務管理司司長王謙稱，過去兩年間我國流動人口總量的下降，主要是受政府鼓勵流動人口在工作城市落戶等重要政策措施的影響。
