In 2020, by the rural poverty standard of annual per capita income of RMB2,300 (at 2010 constant prices), a total of 5.51 million of the rural population living in poverty were lifted out of poverty.

In 2020, the per capita disposable income of rural residents in impoverished areas was RMB12,588, up by 8.8% over that of the previous year, or a real increase of 5.6% on a price-adjusted basis. In 2020, China rebuilt approximately 2 million housing units in run-down urban areas. This marks the completion of the last stage of the construction works involved in the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas for 740 thousand registered poor households. In 2021, China is continuing its efforts in poverty alleviation. For counties that have been lifted out of poverty, a five-year transition period applies from the date poverty in their locality was eradicated, during which major assistance policies will remain unchanged for them. Monitoring and assistance mechanisms continue to prevent populations that have been lifted out of poverty from falling back into it again, and efforts will be made to further strengthen poverty alleviation through boosting employment and industry.
