The paper attempts to analyze the relationship between population mobility and economic growth. Currently, economic indicators appear to be weakening and population flow out in northeast of China. Based on this phenomenon, the paper analyzes dynamical mechanism between population flow and economic growth in northeast by VAR model and VEC model. The study reveals that population flow and economic growth of northeast of China are co-integrated and have a longtime equilibrium. However, population flow hasn't contributed to economic growth. If economic growth were hard hit, it would lead to population flow out. Population crisis of northeast of China is caused by inside trusting.
