Abstract

Guangdong Province, as a big economic province in the whole country, has an unbalanced regional economic development. The Pearl River Delta has a large population and a high economic volume, while the mountainous area of northern Guangdong has a small population and a low economic volume. This paper focuses on the relationship between population and economic growth in the mountainous area of northern Guangdong. Based on the fixed effect model of population quantity and economic growth, this paper draws the following conclusions: the effect of population number on economic aggregate is significant in the mountainous area of northern Guangdong, and an increase of 10, 000 people can bring about 1.787 billion yuan of economic growth. In addition, raising the level of human capital and investment in fixed assets can also contribute to economic growth.
