This paper considers the process of the change in Chinese society-in which its people went from being regional to being migrant in urban communities-and recognizes urban transformation as being based on and an expression of cultural transformation. The transformation of urban communities accompanied the "migration era," and China's urban communities, in fact, have been gradually changing from a relatively closed regional society to a diverse and civilized migrant one. The diversification of migrants has caused many problems for cities during their transition, affecting such aspects of social life as the equal enjoyment of public resources, the changes in family and kinship, regional discrimination, the complexity of interpersonal and ethnic relations, etc. The related topics are worthy of further discussion
