This article uses dynamic monitoring survey data of floating population in 2009 and 2014, with a total sample size of 51,522 people. Using SPSS 22.0 software analysis and combining Excel mapping tools, the author has drawn a population age pyramid chart and a composite line chart. From the perspective of age specific analysis, this article explores the flow patterns of floating population in China, involving multiple aspects such as gender, urban area, marital status, flow scope, and reasons of flow, especially focusing on the analysis of the age structure changes of the floating population in five representative cities, namely Beijing, Taiyuan, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Chengdu, so as to understand the characteristics and reasons for the changes in the floating model. It can be found in the research results that the structural characteristics of the shortage of migrant workers are prominent, and the possibility of urbanization in nearby areas is increased. The marriage problem of the floating population reflects intermarriage barriers. Therefore, by analyzing the age structure of the floating population, the researchers can grasp the changing patterns of the flow pattern, which can provide valuable reference materials for the realization of new urbanization.
