Chang'an Town (Chinese: 长安镇; pinyin: Cháng'ān zhèn) is an industrial town in the south east of the Dongguan prefecture-level city in the Pearl River Delta of Guangdong Province, China.
Population
[edit]The population of Chang'an was 594,809 at the 2000 Census, making it the most populous town (zhèn) in China at that count.[1] By 2021, according to the local government, the permanent population of Chang'an will be 807,400.[2]
Economy
[edit]There are many manufacturing operations which tailor to the needs of the export industry, and as a result, Chang'an is one of the wealthiest districts in China. As Dongguan is an agglomeration of towns without a central core (multicore), the town is more economically connected to adjacent Shenzhen than the smaller urban cores of Dongguan.
Transportation
[edit]State Highway 107, Guangshen Expressway G4 and Guangshen Yanjiang Expressway S3 run through the area.
