Abstract: Using the rural survey data preserved by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences’ (CASS) Institute of Economics, this paper analyzes changes in the level and structure of per capita net income in the eleven villages of Baoding Prefecture, Hebei province, over the 1930-1997 periods. According to the surveys, per capita net income level of the villages maintained consistent growth, as indicated by survey data on the years of 1930, 1936, 1957, 1986 and 1997, except for 1946 which saw decline, and enjoyed rapid growth particularly in the years of reform and opening-up after 1986. The changes reflect the national trend – sustained decline of the proportion of net income from household operations versus continuous growth of the proportion wages income takes of the whole income.
Keywords: the eleven villages of Baoding, per capita net income, net income from household operations, wages income
