Abstract

This article analyzed the characteristics of urban household income polarization in China based on the 2010-2016 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS). The empirical results show that: first, there is a certain income polarization in China’s urban household income, but the polarization has shown a slowing trend. Second, the widening income gap among urban households in China may be a major factor in income polarization, but mobility and internal differentiation among different income groups have improved. Third, the results of the dynamic polarization of income polarization further indicate that the increase in urban household income in China has increased the level of income polarization to some extent, but at the same time income growth has made the distribution structure of household income more reasonable and slowed down the extent of polarization.
