Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, China's urbanization process has been accelerating. The urbanization rate has increased at an average annual rate of 1%, from 17.9% in 1978 to 51.27%, and the urban population has increased from 172 million to 690 million. Nevertheless, compared with 78% of the Urbanization rate in developed countries, there is still much room for development. According to the annual growth rate of 1% of the urbanization rate, China's urbanization rate should really reach the level of developed countries. There is still a development period of about 30 years. Urbanization is of positive significance in coordinating urban and rural development, changing the dual economic structure, realizing urban-rural population transfer, optimizing urban spatial layout, boosting industrial structure, upgrading consumption structure, and accelerating the flow and agglomeration of production factors.
