The most populous minority in China: Zhuang (10, the sixth census,16.93 million).

The most widely distributed ethnic minority in China: Hui (all over China).

China's smallest ethnic minority: Barrow (According to the 2000 China census, there are about 3,000 Barrow people. According to the publication compiled by the State Ethnic Affairs Commission in the early 1980s, the number of Lhoba people has exceeded 300,000. According to the natural population growth, the current total population is about 600,000. Among them, there are only more than 2,300 people actually controlled by China, and the rest are in Indian-occupied areas. Therefore, it is wrong to say that the Lhoba ethnic group is the least populated ethnic group in China in recent years. )
