Analyses are hierarchical linear models with individuals nested in survey rounds nested in provinces. GDP is 2008 log Yuan. Urbanization is the percent of urban residents per province. Herding cultures is the square-root percent of the provincial population from traditionally herding cultures. The rice–wheat border analysis tests the percent rice among 10 neighboring provinces along China’s rice–wheat border.
