Population mobility has great impact on interregional convergence effect in China. Between 1978 and 1987 population mobility decreased the overall economic development convergence rate and that in eastern and western regions of China, thus enlarging the interior gap between these regions. Meanwhile it expedited the convergence rate in central China, which reduced the interior gap in these areas. However, between 1996 and 2003, population mobility increased the overall divergence rate of economic development in China, especially in middle and western regions, enlarged the gap in these areas, but at the same time decreased the divergence rate in east China, thus easing the trend of expanding interior gap.
