The registered population of Beijing Municipality consists of people holding either Beijing permanent residence ''hukou permits'' or temporary residence permits. The 2010 census revealed that the official total population in Beijing was 19,612,368,〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Communiqué of the National Bureau of Statistics of People's Republic of China on Major Figures of the 2010 Population Census )〕 representing a 44% increase over the last decade. In 2006, the population of the urban core was 13.33 million, 84.3 percent of the total municipal population, which officially stood at 15.81 million.〔Figures based on 2006 statistics published in 2007 National Statistical Yearbook of China and available online at (2006年中国乡村人口数 中国人口与发展研究中心 ). Retrieved 21 April 2009.〕 Urban sprawl continues at a rapid pace. After Chongqing and Shanghai,〔 Beijing is the third largest of the four directly controlled municipalities of the People's Republic of China. In the PRC, a directly controlled municipality (直辖市 in pinyin: zhíxiáshì) is a city with status equal to a province. Even though Chongqing is the most populous municipality, it has a larger land area than either Beijing or Shanghai and includes many rural areas; Brittany Hite of the ''Wall Street Journal'' stated "is more akin to a small province than a city."〔Hite, Brittany. "(Beijing Now Has Almost as Many People as Australia )." ''The New York Times''. June 19, 2014. Retrieved on June 21, 2014.〕 According to the statistical yearbook issued in 2005 by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, out of a total population in 2004 of 14.213 million in Beijing, 1.415 million (9.96%) were 0–14 years old, 11.217 million (78.92%) were 15–64 and 1.581 million (11.12%) 65 and over.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Age Composition and Dependency Ratio of Population by Region (2004) in China Statistics 2005 )〕 As of 2014, the population of Beijing almost equaled that of Australia.〔 ==Ethnic groups== Most of Beijing's residents belong to the Han Chinese majority. Ethnic minorities include the Manchu, Hui, and Mongol. According to the 2010 National Census there were 18,811,000 Han Chinese in Beijing along with 336,000 Manchus, 249,000 Hui, 77,000 Mongols, 37,000 Koreans and 24,000 Tujia forming the largest minorities.〔(Current population situation of Beijing's ethnic minorities. ) 6th National Census, 2010.〕 There is one ethnic minority area in Miyun County, the Tanying Manchu and Mongolian Area. Tibetan-language high school exists for youth of Tibetan ancestry, nearly all of whom have come to Beijing from Tibet expressly for their studies. A sizable international community resides in Beijing, many attracted by the highly growing foreign business and trade sector, others by the traditional and modern culture of the city. Many of these foreigners live in the areas around the Beijing CBD, Sanlitun, and Wudaokou. In recent years, there has also been an influx of South Koreans, an estimated 200,000 in 2009, predominantly for business and study. Many of them live in the Wangjing and Wudaokou areas. Nimrod Baranovitch, author of "Inverted Exile: Uyghur Writers and Artists in Beijing and the Political Implications of Their Work," stated that the actual number of Uyghur in Beijing is greater than the official count that because official statistics do not "include the floating population".〔Baranovitch, Nimrod (University of Haifa). "(Inverted Exile: Uyghur Writers and Artists in Beijing and the Political Implications of Their Work )." ''Modern China''. Sage Publications. October 2007 33: 462-504, doi: 10.1177/0097700407304803. Cited: Baranovitch, p. 496. "2. According to official statistics (Zhongguo renkou tongji nianjian, 2002: 80), in 2000 Beijing had 3,129 Uyghur residents; but this figure does not include the floating population, which makes the actual Uyghur population in the capital much larger. In 2001 several of my informants estimated that Beijing had approximately 10,000 Uyghurs, while in 2005 they suggested that the number had risen to about 13,000. I could find no evidence supporting these estimates, however."〕 Baranovitch stated that he had informants tell him that there were 10,000 Uyghurs in 2001 and 13,000 Uyghurs in 2005 but he was unable to verify the figures.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Demographics of Beijing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
