Abstract:

As the basic unit of China's administrative divisions,county is an important platform for the integration of urban and rural development. Under the background of a new era,with the increase of return migration and rural-urban migration within county,and the implementation of the strategy of rural vitalization, it is necessary to accelerate the development of county urbanization. On the basis of related theories on in-situ urbanization,this paper proposes the concept of in-situ urbanization within county. We believe that current characteristics of migration,villagers' migration intentions to move to cities,and national policies are the realistic basis for promoting county-level urbanization development. However,local governments are also facing some problems in the process of promoting county urbanization development. To accelerate the development of county-level urbanization are proposed,we shall increase villagers' abilities to settle in cities,pay attention to returning migrant workers,improve the attractiveness of small and medium-sized cities and small towns,and build distinctive towns.

Key words: in-situ urbanization, county, rural vitalization, New Era
