"At a time when many Americans back home worry whether fast-rising China is
out to eat their lunch, the number of Americans living on the Chinese
mainland has reached a record high of 71,493, according to Chinese census
bureau figures released in April. In addition, more than 60,000 Americans
live in Hong Kong, according to the U.S. State Department. A 2005 estimate
of 110,000 Americans living in China included Hong Kong residents. Another
430,000 people from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau lived in China at the end of
2010, but Beijing does not count them as foreign residents.
"Despite visa hassles and headaches, the number of Americans living in China
looks set to grow. The foreign population 'shows the international standard
of a city,' argues Dai Jianzhong, a researcher from the Beijing Academy of
Social Sciences. The think tank is lobbying city hall to improve living and
working conditions for foreigners, who total just over 1% of Beijing
residents, compared with 20% in New York and London, he says.
