Most of the fourth-tier cities are medium-sized cities with relatively average city size, economic and social development level, and transportation construction. Most of the fourth-tier cities are prefecture-level cities, and also include the provincial capitals, capitals, and autonomous prefectures of individual provinces and autonomous regions. The economic and social development of fourth-tier cities often relies on local small and medium-sized enterprises or resource-based enterprises, and residents' consumption levels are in the process of growth.
