The main source of data from the 1990 census is: Population Census Office under the State Council 1991, Major Figures of the Fourth National Population Census of China, Beijing: China Statistical Publishing House. The China Population and Information Research Center subsequently released a 1% Sample of the individual questionnaires from the 1990 Census. This is the 1% 1990 China Census data-set now residing in the China Archives collection. The data-set on the China Archive consists of separate 1% samples for each of China's three municipalities (Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin) and provinces and autonomous areas. The total number of cases in this 1% sample is over 11 million. The data are available line by line (one line per case) in a "dat" format. (See Dat files in this collection).en
