In terms of education, Changsha is worse than Wuhan in terms of universities. Wuhan is the city with the largest number of college students. There are more than 1 million college students, while Changsha only has more than 400,000. The educational resources are quite abundant. There are only two 985 universities like Changsha, but Wuhan University and Huazhong Science and Technology are still stronger than Zhongnan Lake University. In 211, there are 7 hospitals in Wuhan and only three in Changsha. The universities in Wuhan are very large. Wuchang is like a university town, generally twice the size of Changsha, and has complete scientific research equipment. This is also due to historical reasons. Wuhan has natural advantages. However, Changsha has made obvious progress, such as foreign affairs, a normal school, Changsha Medical College has not long been upgraded to a bachelor's degree, last time there were three universities that were upgraded to a bachelor's degree, and this time there are five universities in Hunan that were upgraded to a bachelor's degree. Hubei's universities are concentrated in Wuhan. Three of the universities in Hunan are not in Changsha, and all of them in Hubei are in Wuhan. Although I feel that these schools are a bit far away from the first-level school, the Hunan government does not have the final say on upgrading to the first-level school. This at least shows that the gap between Changsha and Wuhan is narrowing. What universities have is talents, and talents are the key to development. Trinity and Zhonglian have recruited a lot of talents in Central and South Huda, and there are relatively more students who stay in the location of the university to develop. For example, I think it is good to stay in Changsha. Moreover, college students are all consumers and have made a considerable contribution to a city’s consumption.

The traffic in Wuhan is chaotic, and pedestrians cross the road casually. In fact, Wuhan with 5 million people does not have many more cars than Changsha with 3 million people. The number of cars in Changsha reached 1 million a little later than Wuhan. In addition, Wuhan is much larger and has light rail, double-decker buses, water transportation, etc., so the traffic problem should not be so serious. The old town of Hankou has not developed much. This area is a bit like the Gaoqiao Market and the clothing market at Zhuzhou Railway Station. It looks very messy. The old house had no parking spaces and cars occupied two driveways. Many people still tend to buy electric motorcycles and bicycles, and the ownership rate is much higher than in Changsha. At the same time, due to the early development of Wuhan, the urban planning space and the subsequent sharp increase in population have resulted in very narrow roads and very congested traffic. I am very speechless about the buses in Wuhan. The names of the stops always use the road and add the suffix. Find It’s a bit difficult for outsiders to get where they want to go. Then the roads in Wuhan are bad, and there are traffic jams due to subway construction. Wuhan has always regarded itself as the Chicago of China and has natural transportation advantages. However, current water transportation is not ideal. The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge blocks large cargo ships. Wuchang Railway Station is very elegant, and there are several railway stations in Wuhan. This time of large-scale urban construction in Changsha, the railway station should be renovated, which will seriously affect the image of Changsha. The two cities have similar aviation services. Wuhan has a geographical advantage and Changsha has a large passenger volume. All three cities are competing for the fourth aviation city. Bridges in Changsha need to be improved. The two core bridges are too narrow. There are several river-crossing tunnels under construction. Once completed, the river-crossing problem should basically be solved. The planned light rail in Changsha will soon be completed to connect it to Zhuzhou and Xiangtan, and a first-class highway will also be built. The future Shanghai-Kunming high-speed railway will pass through Changsha, which is also a powerful aspect. Parking spaces in Changsha are also a problem. Changsha's businesses are too concentrated in the May Day Business Circle, and they are often blocked here. Taxis in Wuhan are made by Citro?n, which directly drives the sales of French cars. There are more high-end cars in Changsha, especially Land Rovers.

In terms of real estate, Wuhan’s housing prices are more than 1,000 yuan higher than Changsha’s, while wages (per capita income) are still lower than Changsha’s. I think this is one of the reasons why Changsha can become a typical consumer city. . Generally speaking, Changsha's modernization development plan is earlier and there are many more high-rise buildings than Wuhan. There are many high-rise buildings in the Optics Valley area of ??Wuhan, many of which are office buildings, which are much higher than those in Changsha. Wuhan is also preparing to build the tallest building in China and the third tallest building in the world. Changsha lacks such landmark buildings. Changsha's current office buildings are mainly concentrated in the Wuyi Avenue area. Will it be too centralized and affect traffic? Changsha's current real estate has been developed in large areas and is equipped with many supporting facilities, such as schools, supermarkets, and entertainment facilities. Will be very suitable for life. Beichen Delta, Meixi Lake, and Songya Lake are preparing to build the future international CBD, and the overall layout is very reasonable. Zhuzhou, Xiangtan and Changsha are not a whole. There is no planning in the central area, just a green heart. They are supporting roles in Changsha. Zhuzhou and Xiangtan have a very good heavy industry foundation and can form complementary advantages with Changsha. Personally, I think this layout is better than that in Wuhan, which is divided into three towns. Hanyang Industrial Base, Hankou Commercial Center, Wuchang University Town, and then build an Optics Valley High-tech Industrial Park. Many ancient buildings in Wuhan face protection problems, and there is basically not much left in Changsha. Having history is a good thing, but it can also hinder economic development. Urban planning is based on the past and faces huge demolition problems. The old town of Hankou feels like a slum, and many of them need to be renovated. There are many lakes in Wuhan, and many of the lakes in Changsha are artificial, such as Xianjia Lake, Meixi Lake, and Songya Lake. Wuhan’s advantages have not been used well. There are many villas in Changsha. There are large villa groups in Wangcheng, South Railway Station, and Xingsha. In fact, cities like Changsha and Wuhan do not have much motivation to develop three-dimensional cities. As long as they are well planned, there is no shortage of land.

Changsha is a typical consumer city. As soon as you arrive in Changsha, you will find that there are neon billboards and bright street lights everywhere. It looks like a city with nightlife.

The restaurant and hotel retail industry is very developed, with many five-star hotels, various supermarkets, and many luxury stores. Golden Family, Friendship Outlets, Bailian, Meimei, all sell their clothes in units of thousands or tens of thousands. It has a unique bar culture and is very popular every day, with cars parked underneath. Changsha's business is too concentrated in the May Day business circle, while Wuhan's is relatively scattered. Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street is very popular and has many billboards. Jianghan Road obviously does not have this momentum. The underground shopping mall on Hanzheng Street is very large, but there is too little traffic. From a consumption point of view, the difference between the two cities should not be very big. Wuhan has a large total volume and a lot of people, so it will not lag behind Changsha. Among the cities in central China, Changsha has the highest per capita income and very low housing prices (among the six major provincial capitals), so it has the ability to spend. The average house price in Wuhan is 1,000 higher than that in Changsha.

Changsha is not as rich in tourism resources as Wuhan. Yuelu Mountain is famous mainly because it is in the urban area of ??Changsha and has many people going there. Changsha's popularity has a lot to do with Hunan Satellite TV. We are all outside. When we say we are from Hunan, others will think of Hunan Satellite TV, Wang Han, He Jiong and others. Hunan TV has made a great contribution to promoting Hunan and Changsha, eliminating the need to go to CCTV to advertise like Shandong and Henan. So I have seen tourist groups from Hong Kong come to climb Yuelu Mountain, and the fireworks at Orange Island are also a major feature. Wuhan has the well-known Yellow Crane Tower and many lakes. The East Lake is several times the size of the West Lake and there are many forest parks. Changsha has a long history, but there are very few historical relics left, while Wuhan has many left. Relatively speaking, Wuhan is more unique, while Changsha has no characteristics.

Wuhan has many government agencies and institutions. Since it is the most central city in central China, many companies have set up their headquarters in Wuhan, and many foreign institutions are also in Wuhan. Wuhan's finance seems to be relatively developed, and I spotted a few places that engage in futures. Changsha's private economy is relatively developed, such as Sany Heavy Industry. Changsha's industrial base is very weak, it is difficult to find a job, and it is difficult to retain talents. Wuhan had an industrial base before, including optoelectronics, automobiles, steel and chemicals, etc., while Changsha mainly focused on biomedicine, electronics, and machinery.

Among the six major cities in central China (Wuhan, Changsha, Zhengzhou, Taiyuan, Nanchang, and Hefei), Changsha has a very small population and a small urban area. Now Changsha is spreading the pie and expanding rapidly in all directions. I want to make up for this shortcoming. Population is always a constraint. The key lies in whether it can attract the outside population. Wuhan has a population of more than 10 million, while Changsha only has a population of more than 7 million, so it must be at least 10 million. However, looking at the scale of this real estate, Changsha is working hard to expand. Chengdu, Chongqing, Wuhan, Changsha, Zhengzhou, and Shenyang are the cities with the greatest potential apart from the coastal areas. I think they can reach a similar level in the future. Cities in the central and western regions will be centered on provincial capitals. Changsha in Hunan is the only city with an increase in population. I believe other provinces will be similar. These isolated cities will be far ahead of other cities and may be on par with coastal cities in the future. However, at present, the gap between these cities and the coastal areas is still very large, and many basic problems remain unresolved. Changsha has developed rapidly in recent years and has surpassed many cities, but I don’t think it can surpass Wuhan. Their starting points are very similar, and neither of them has an absolute advantage. Wuhan is the largest among the three cities, but Hubei's economic aggregate is the lowest. Henan has the largest aggregate, but Zhengzhou is the lowest among the three cities. Changsha has the highest per capita benefit from Hunan, and Zhuzhou and Xiangtan’s cooperation. Wuhan and Zhengzhou account for a larger proportion of the province and have the advantage of concentration. If the three cities of Changsha, Zhuzhou and Xiangtan were combined, they would immediately surpass Wuhan.

Changsha is generally a city with many private enterprises. Just look at Sany, Zoomlion, and Yuanda. Wuhan has more large state-owned enterprises, so in overall comparison, Changsha is The people are rich, and the Wuhan government is rich. This can be seen by looking at the per capita income, per capita consumption and luxury goods consumption of Changsha in the six central provinces.

In general, if you are a more passionate person, Changsha may be more suitable for you, and the overall entrepreneurial and living environment is better than Wuhan. If you are a person who prefers to live a stable life, then Wuhan is more suitable for you. There are many large state-owned enterprises, and the chance of encountering an iron rice bowl is higher.
