In recent decades, however, their economies performed relatively poorly, and they have been losing population, which seems to be deteriorating in more recent years. Using the large scale micro data sets, we show that: (1) The migrants from the northeastern China are more likely to have non-agricultural Hukou, which is unique as migrants from other regions are dominated by rural migrants; They are not only more educated than the non-migrants of their origin provinces but also more educated than migrants from other regions. (2) Over 50% of the migrants from the northeast concentrated in bordering provinces, and the rest are mainly located in economically developed regions (Guangdong and Shanghai) and Shandong province, the latter being the largest source province of the population growth in the northeast in the early 20th century. (3) Migrants leaving the northeast earn significantly higher than those who moved within that area, who in turn earn significantly higher than non-movers. Those who migrate the longest distance earn the highest. (4) While wage levels in the northeast were lower than those in other regions, migrants from the northeast earn significantly higher than migrants from other regions, conditional on observable characteristics. (5) Regions with higher wage levels tend to have higher percentage of the migrant population.
