Abstract:
Objective: To analyze the space-time evolution trend of population aging at the county level in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2020. Methods: Taking each county of Jiangsu Province as the research object, we selected data from the fourth to the seventh national population censuses. We used the aging coefficient and age concentration rate as static and dynamic indicators to measure the degree of population aging, respectively. We also used spatial correlation analysis to study the spatial and temporal patterns and evolution characteristics of aging in counties in Jiangsu Province. Results: The degree of aging in each county of Jiangsu Province has been deepening, and the degree of aging gradually evolves from high in southern Jiangsu and low in northern Jiangsu to high in central Jiangsu and low in southern and northern Jiangsu and shows obvious spatial aggregation. From 1990 to 2020, the population aging in Jiangsu Province has accelerated, among which the aging from 2010-2020 is the fastest. The aging progress appeares the fastest in 2010-2020. Conclusion: From 1990 to 2020, population aging in Jiangsu Province has been deepening, with the fastest progress in the last decade and an obvious spatial aggregation.
