The development of China has been a fast paced phenomenon that is rapidly changing the society. This has led to what many are calling the development gap, where some are able to share in the new lifestyles and others are not. This is especially true of the countryside, where living conditions are in many ways carried out in the same circumstances as they were in their fathers' time. People still use old agricultural techniques as scientific agriculture is costly and even unknown. Although the government has taken steps to fix this problem, it remains a difficulty as country dwellers are the majority of the population in China. This only heightens the differences between urban and country dwellers. Reinforcement is added when those in the city view the habits of their country counterparts. The education gap is noticeable as is the hygiene difference which urban dwellers are quick to point out. Because of the income differential, workers are coming to the cities in ever increasing numbers. There, they have few skills and little education so many end up in city construction jobs or doing the non-ideal jobs for others in business. Reeducation and training are needed in both the country and the city so that those who have been left behind might catch up.
