Abstract

This paper uses the population density, population concentration index, population center of gravity and population distribution Gini coefficient to analyze the spatial-temporal characteristics and non-equilibrium of county population distribution in Northwest China from 2001 to 2016. The results show that between 2001 and 2016, the population of northwestern China continued to grow, but the distribution was extremely uneven. The population density of different counties was much different, and the number of counties with negative annual growth increased; the population concentration index decreased slightly. The population center of gravity is located in the southeast of the geometric center which moves slowly from southeast to northwest. The Gini coefficient of population distribution fluctuates around 0.77.
