Why should Shanghai lower the threshold for settlement?

First of all, this information is true. As for the reasons, I have read some information and think that there are three factors:

First, the epidemic factors have led to a serious population decline, and it is necessary to lower the threshold to retain the population.

During March-May, 2022, an epidemic broke out in Shanghai, which closed the whole city for about 1 month. After the closure, Shanghai suddenly lost100000 people. As for whether this100000 people will return again, the answer is not satisfactory.

Because there were a lot of negative public opinions about Shanghai's handling of the epidemic during the city closure, there were a lot of criticisms on the Internet, whether it was the timeliness of the top management or the service attitude of the grassroots, so the Shanghai people at that time were even more dissatisfied. It can be said that they are very chilling about Shanghai, and many people will not come to Shanghai to earn money again. In addition, the cost of living in Shanghai is too high, and migrants can't work because of the epidemic, but they still need money to eat and live, especially the rent in Shanghai is very high.

Therefore, the foreign population will also consider whether to come to Shanghai to work hard through this epidemic, because if unexpected factors occur again, then the economic expenditure is far less than the income, and there is no need to come again. Objectively speaking, this epidemic has also sounded the alarm for Shanghai, because the development of the city is inseparable from the population, and retaining the population is the hope. Therefore, it is necessary to lower the threshold and retain people.

Second, Shanghai's population growth has been weak in recent years, and it needs foreign population to expand its population size.

According to the statistics of Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Statistics, by the end of 20021,the permanent population of Shanghai was 24,894,300. Among them, the registered population is 14574400, and the foreign resident population is 103 19900. In the whole year, the permanent population was born 1 1.6 million and died 1.39 million, and the natural growth rate of the permanent population was -0.92‰. In the past 202 1 year, Shanghai only increased 10700 people.

In other words, there is a problem of weak population growth, and the permanent population shows a negative growth trend (the natural growth rate of permanent population is -0.92‰). In fact, this problem appeared in Shanghai in 20 15. Shanghai belongs to a metropolis, and there are many Dink families and unmarried people. The base of this population will increase. When the population growth is weak, there will be new problems, that is, the population is aging seriously, so

Therefore, Shanghai needs foreign population to expand its population size and must lower the threshold, which is very important for Shanghai's future development.

Third, lowering the threshold for settlement is also attracting talents.

The primary target of lowering the threshold for settling down is college students, that is, talents, and I personally think that college students who can stay in Shanghai are also a kind of people, that is, college students with strong career aspirations or medium family background. As for why, the reason is that there are two most direct benefits that Shanghai household registration can give, one is that children go to school and the other is providing for the elderly.

For college students with particularly good family conditions, they may go abroad after graduation, so there is no need to care about pensions. For college students with particularly poor family conditions, whether they can get married in Shanghai is a problem. Therefore, this threshold is relatively biased towards college students with moderate family conditions, because they have the idea and ability to stand in Shanghai. Once such college students choose to work hard in Shanghai, it will inevitably stimulate and drive the development of Shanghai.

Generally speaking, Shanghai's policy of lowering the threshold for settlement is true, which is not only an expedient measure for epidemic factors, but also a long-term solution for Shanghai's sustainable development. Also throw an olive branch to college students, trying to attract and retain talents.
