The most populous country on Earth, China has more inhabitants than North America, Europe and Russia combined. In the 1950s in order to avoid overpopulation, the People's Republic of China not only implemented the one-child policy, it also relocated millions of city dwellers to rural areas in order to relieve the burden on overpopulated cities and to counteract impending unemployment.
In 2012 the percentage of city dwellers had grown to more than 51%. More and more people left the country's rural areas to settle in the cities, mainly in order to work. Generally, though, it is not entire families who move to the city, but only the men or the young adults. For economical reasons, they leave the old people and children behind in the villages.
