Since its inception as a special economic zone and China's financial centre, Pudong's population largely consists of migrants from the Puxi side of Shanghai, those from other regions in China, and increasingly, foreigners. Pudong is seen as more culturally sophisticated than Puxi.
People originally from the Pudong area spoke a different dialect of Wu Chinese than conventional Shanghainese, although slowly the Pudong dialect is dying out or being integrated into a large Shanghainese and Mandarin linguistic circles.
