Measurement Research on New Urbanization Development of Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster Based on the Concept of “Production-Living-Ecology” Space

Abstract

With the accelerating urbanization process, the urbanization rate is increasing year by year. Taking Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster as an example, the evaluation index system of new urbanization in Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster is constructed from three dimensions: production space, living space and ecological space. The entropy method, mathematical statistics analysis and exploratory spatial data analysis are adopted, and the time from 2008 to 2020 is taken as the research time node. This paper analyzes the development level of new urbanization in Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster from two aspects of time series dynamics and spatial pattern. Through data analysis, it is found that there is a high correlation between new urbanization and population urbanization rate in Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster. The growth trend of “quality” and “number” of new urbanization is consistent, and the comprehensive level of new urbanization in Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster is constantly improving. At the same time, there are some problems in the new urbanization of Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan City Cluster, such as unreasonable industrial structure, backward public transport infrastructure, serious structural unemployment, serious air pollution and large gap between urban and rural areas. Finally, the paper puts forward relevant policy suggestions.
