Abstract

In this paper, four first-level indicators are selected, and a total of 24 second-level indicators are used to construct an evaluation index system for urbanization development level. Using 14 cities and prefectures in Hunan Province as samples, principal component analysis and cluster analysis were used to analyze and evaluate their urbanization development level. It was found that Changsha had the highest level of urbanization development, and Shaoyang City and Xiangxi Prefecture were the worst. Then we gave explanations and suggestions for adjustment and development.
