The characteristics of ethnic distribution in China are as follows.

The characteristics of ethnic distribution in China are: large mixed residence, small concentration and staggered residence.

There are ethnic minorities living in Han areas, and there are also Han people living in ethnic minority areas. This distribution pattern is formed by the interaction and flow between ethnic groups in the long-term historical development process. Although the population of ethnic minorities in China is small, they are widely distributed. All provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government are inhabited by ethnic minorities, and most county-level units are inhabited by more than two ethnic minorities.

China's ethnic minorities are mainly distributed in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Ningxia, Guangxi, Tibet, Yunnan, Guizhou, Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Jilin, Hunan, Hubei, Hainan and Taiwan Province provinces. China is the country with the largest ethnic composition in the world, with 25 ethnic groups.
