The development of mainland provinces varies greatly, but due to differences in population size, natural resources, transportation location, etc., the economic development of cities in the province also varies greatly. Do you know which city has the lowest per capita GDP in all provinces on the mainland? Today, I will take stock of the cities with the poorest per capita GDP in mainland provinces.

Distribution of the last cities in per capita GDP in each province in 2022
There are two provinces with a per capita GDP data of more than 80,000 yuan, namely Fujian Province and Jiangsu Province.
The penultimate per capita GDP of Fujian Province is Nanping City, and the first per capita GDP of Jiangsu Province is Suqian City.
Nanping City, the penultimate city in Fujian's per capita GDP
Fujian and Jiangsu are provinces with relatively balanced economic development on the mainland. Although Jiangsu is known as the Great Inner Fighting Province, northern Jiangsu has long been discriminated against by the more developed southern Jiangsu region, but the data of Suqian City, which has the lowest per capita GDP in northern Jiangsu, is still as high as 82,200 yuan, which makes the non-pearl region of Guangdong unmatched.
Northern Jiangsu is actually not backward
There is one province with a per capita GDP data between 70,000 yuan and 80,000 yuan, which is Zhejiang Province.
The penultimate per capita GDP in Zhejiang Province is Lishui City, with a per capita GDP of 72,900 yuan in 2022. Zhejiang is also a province with relatively balanced economic development in mainland China, in addition to the vigorous development of Hangzhou Economic Circle and Ningbo Economic Circle, the economic strength of Wenzhou, Jinhua and other cities should not be underestimated.
Yeosu City
The data of the penultimate city in per capita GDP in other provinces are below 70,000 yuan, of which the data of Xinjiang, Qinghai and Gansu provinces is even less than 20,000 yuan.
The Northwest Territories remains the poorest region on the continent
Although Guangdong is the largest economic province in the mainland, its development is extremely uneven between regions within the province. The Pearl River Delta region is one of the most economically developed, active and export-oriented regions in the mainland, but the eastern Guangdong, western Guangdong and northern Guangdong regions in the non-Pearl River Delta region are extremely economically backward places. The city with the lowest per capita GDP in Guangdong Province is Meizhou, with a figure of 33,900 yuan in 2022.
The development of eastern Guangdong, western Guangdong and northern Guangdong is relatively backward
Meizhou's figures are even lower than those for Zhoukou, the poorest city in Henan and Fuyang, the poorest city in Anhui, which are famous poor areas in the country. Therefore, Guangdong Province still has a long way to go for the balanced development of the regional economy.
