Do Rural-Urban Identities Affect Individuals' Health? Evidence From China.

We study the relationship between household registration status (Hukou) and the state of individuals' health to find out whether inequality in health between urban and rural population exists in China. We have used the probit model to regress the state of health on household registration using the individual-level data of the 2018 CFPS survey. We find that inequality in health between urban and rural population does exist in China.
