🌐 3D View 📖 HERA Atlas 📊 HG Data
📋 Most recent national census: 2020. Not yet carried in HERA — China has held a national census; HERA simply doesn't carry it on this page yet (the source may be access-restricted, PDF-only, or not yet ingested). Its absence here does not mean no census was taken.
📊 Latest intercensal survey: 2025 — 1% national population sample survey (a sample survey between full censuses, not a complete enumeration)
