Illiteracy Rates by Region, 1990 - 2010 (fig. 17) National Average Shanghai Beijing Xinjiang Inner Mongolia Yunnan Gansu Qinghai Sichuan Tibet (TAR) 0 5 10 15 20 Since 1990, illiteracy has dropped dramatically in the TAR, but is still the highest in the PRC at 24.4%. 25 30 30 35 40 45 2010 2000 1990 The TAR has maintained the highest illiteracy rate in the PRC since 1990. The 2010 census lists the TAR's illiteracy rate at 32% because it only counts the population aged 15 and up, but the Major Figures of the 2010 Population Census lists it at 24% because it takes the percentage out of the entire population. Either way, the TAR has an extraordinarily high rate of illiteracy compared to the rest of the PRC. (Statistics Source: Sixth National Population Census of China 2010)
