Note. ① According to the Notice on Adjusting the Standard of City Scale Division, the standard for the scale for cities was based on the population of their urban areas. Small cities (fewer than 500,000people), medium-sized cities (500,000–1 million), large cities (1 million–5 million), megacities (5 million–10 million), and supercities (over 10 million) (“more than” includes the number itself, and “less than” does not include it). ② R-high in the table refers to relatively high.
