The National Bureau of Statistics said on Tuesday that it will launch a nationwide population sample survey this year, in order to accurately and promptly monitor demographic development in China and inform formulation of the country's economic and social development plans and population policies.

From Tuesday to Nov 30, selected residents will be asked about their basic information ranging from age, gender and race to education levels, job positions, marital and fertility status and housing condition.

The reference time for the survey will be Nov 1, 2023, the NBS added.
