Abstract:

This paper aims to evaluate the rurality at county-scale in Sichuan, define the development types and rurality strength of the counties, and identify the spatial-temporal features in the balanced urban-rural development. Based on data during 2000 to 2016, we classified the rural development types and constructed the assessment indicators of rurality. The results showed that: (1) the pattern of counties in Sichuan was relatively stable, mainly the balanced development type and the agriculture-oriented type, with the complements of commercial service type and the industry-dominated type, and there were remarkable temporal and spatial differences in some types; (2) the county-scale rurality of Sichuan was mainly moderate and strong, the mean value of the rurality indicators presented a gradual downward trend, and county-scale rurality had significantly geographical agglomeration, with Chengdu plain as the center to increase gradually outward from low value to high value. The results have certain practical values in constructing new beautiful villages and promoting the development of urban-rural integration in Sichuan.

Key words: rural development type, rurality assessment, county-scale, rural revitalization
