The aim of this study is to investigate the factors influencing the attitudes of the urban community towards non-local residents in China. An ordered-probit model is employed to estimate the community data drawn from the Chinese Household Income Project (CHIP) in 2007. The empirical results show that residents of urban communities with higher population density are more likely to feel that non-local residents increase labor market competition as well as pressure on local public services. Also, local residents are more likely to feel labor market competition when most of the non-local residents work in the same enterprise. However, if the non-local residents have more contacts with local residents, then local residents are more likely feel that non-local residents provide various services to urban residents and make urban life more convenient. |
