2?The Status Quo of Urban Statistics in China
????????
??The Status Quo of the Urban Development and
Statistics in China?????????????

• On a world basis, the urban statistic system of
  China is relatively self-contained and complete.
  Not only has a special urban statistic department
  (Department of Urban Statistics) been set up
  within the National Statistics Bureau, but also
  organizations on county (or above) levels
  specially assigned for official statistical work
  and investigation teams on different levels under
  the National Statistics Bureau have been
  established across the whole country.

??Construction of the Statistic System for the
Metropolitan Cities in China???????????
1?The System of Statistic Methods ??????

• The urban statistic indicator system should be
  made in such a way that it really reflects and
  represents the characteristics of the city.
• ?????????????????
• For example
• Economic statistics of the headquarters of the
  enterprises
• ??????
• Statistics on modern manufacturing industry
• ???????
• Statistics relating to leisure time activities of
  the residents

2?The Organization Management System ??????

• At present, the official formal urban statistic
  management systems are mainly classified into two
  major categories and respectively, on three
  levels. In addition to official statistics,
  there are also some non-government statistics
  with some professional affiliations. Due to space
  and volume limits, this article should not take
  them into consideration.Two categories

A colossal number of problems
accompanying the present statistical system
????????????

• Viewed from our past experiences gained through
  a long historical period, due to the sheer number
  of transversely connected sections of urban
  statistics, as well as the intricately and
  vertically woven levels to which those
  sections,departments,or sectors are attached, our
  statistic work was riddled with a colossal number
  of problems. In particular, one problem was that
  certain data of one category were often generated
  from multiple organizations with different
  measures and standards, thus leading to a chaotic
  situation with tremendous difficulties for the
  urban statistic management work.
