On April 19th, the Guangdong Investigation Division of the National Bureau of Statistics released data on the income and consumption of Guangdong residents in the first quarter of 2023. According to the data, the per capita disposable income of Guangdong residents in the first quarter was 13,867 yuan, an increase of 3.8% year-on-year. The per capita consumption expenditure reached 8,554 yuan, an increase of 1.9% year-on-year.
Fast growth in net operating income
The per capita disposable income of urban residents was 16,758 yuan, an increase of 3.3%, and an actual increase of 1.8% (excluding price factors). The per capita disposable income of rural residents was 6,985 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.2%, and an actual increase of 4.2% (excluding price factors). The growth rate of per capita disposable income of rural residents was 1.9 percentage points higher than that of urban residents.
There were increases in all four categories of income in the first quarter of the year. The per capita wage income of Guangdong residents was 9,395 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.6%; the per capita net operating income was 1,604 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.4%; the per capita net property income was 1,960 yuan, a stable increase of 2.7%; and the per capita net transfer income was 908 yuan, steadily increasing by 3.7%.
It is worth noting that with the accelerating economic recovery and stabilizing employment, wage income became the main source of residents' income, accounting for 56%. Thanks to the active market, the average per capita net income from operating activities increases faster than the other three categories of income (wage income, property income, and transfer income).
Rural household consumption expenditure growth outpaces that of urban households
In terms of consumption expenditure, the per capita consumption expenditure of Guangdong residents was 8,554 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.9%. As for the breakdown by urban and rural areas, the per capita consumption expenditure of urban residents was 9,806 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.7%, while the per capita consumption expenditure of rural residents was 5,574 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.8%.

Expenditure on housing and education, culture and entertainment increased steadily by 6.4% and 5.8%, respectively. However, expenditure on food, tobacco and alcohol, clothing, daily necessities and services, and transportation and communication decreased by 3.8%, 3.0%, 3.5%, and 0.2% year-on-year, respectively.
As for prices, the consumer price index (CPI) of Guangdong residents rose by 1.4% year-on-year, a decrease of 0.3 percentage points from the same period last year. On a monthly basis, affected by the New Year's Day and Spring Festival, and the fact that the two festivals fell in different months, the Guangdong CPI increased by 1.0% month-on-month and 2.7% year-on-year in January. In February and March, as the holiday effects faded, the CPI decreased by 0.9% and 0.3% month-on-month, respectively, but still increased by 0.8% year-on-year in both months.
