The bar chart illustrates population growth across four major cities in China—Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen—between 2010 and 2015.
Shanghai had the highest population in both years, growing from 24 million in 2010 to 25 million in 2015. Beijing followed closely, with a population increase from 20 to 21 million over the same period. These two cities experienced steady, moderate growth.
In contrast, Guangzhou and Shenzhen saw more notable increases. Guangzhou's population grew from 13 million to 14 million, while Shenzhen experienced the largest growth, rising from 10 million to 12 million.
Overall, while all regions exhibited population growth, Guangzhou and Shenzhen showed more significant increases compared to Beijing and Shanghai, which had smaller, steadier growth rates. The most substantial growth occurred in Shenzhen, marking it as the region with the largest population rise over the five-year period.
