Abstract

The large human migration between different areas in China indicates unequal urban and economic development under the background of rapid urbanization and rush for economic growth. Based on social networking big data, we analyzed the difference of population distribution during the Spring Festival holiday and the non-holiday periods. We find that the two patterns differ significantly and there are mainly two levels of population migration center.
