How poor is Sichuan Daliangshan?

How poor is Sichuan Daliangshan? I believe that in the impression of many people, Liangshan, Sichuan is a very poor place. Especially after Cliff Village was reported, everyone was more impressed by the poverty and backwardness of Liangshan.

Is Liangshan, Sichuan really as poor and backward as it is said on the Internet?

Before answering this question, let's learn about the basic situation of Liangshan.

Liangshan is located in the southwest of Sichuan. It governs Xichang, Dechang, Butuo, Meigu, Zhaojue, Huili, Yuexi and Leibo 17 counties and cities.

The terrain here is complex, including plateaus, hills, mountains and plains. But it is remote and the traffic is not very convenient; Although there are buses in all counties, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth because of the bad road conditions.

I went to Liangshan to collect folk songs. I took the 5633/5634 train to Puxiong, Yuexi, and then from Puxiong to the surrounding area to photograph the daily life of the local people.

Judging from some areas I have seen in Liangshan, Liangshan is still relatively poor and backward. Especially when I know about some children, I will sigh that I can't help more people.

A considerable number of poverty-stricken counties in Sichuan Province are located in Liangshan. The counties under the jurisdiction of Liangshan are all state-level poverty-stricken counties except some counties that are not poverty-stricken counties.

But judging from the per capita GDP of Liangshan, it is not very backward.

In 20 17, the per capita GDP3 of Liangshan was 30,000 yuan, which was a little higher than that of Guangdong, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui and parts of northwest and northeast China.

If compared with the housing price, the current housing price in Liangshan exceeds 10,000 yuan, which is second only to Chengdu in Sichuan Province. Nationally, housing prices in Liangshan are at least higher than those in more than 70% cities.

Seeing this, do you think Liangshan in Sichuan is poor and backward?
