Abstract

In order to promote the efficient and coordinated utilization of counties’ territorial space in Hunan Province, this paper identifies the state of high-quality utilization of territorial space based on the perspective of spatial equilibrium from 2010 to 2020, and uses the spatial econometric model to analyze its influencing factors and propose effective optimization strategies. The results show that: (1) From 2010 to 2020, the quality of agricultural space utilization continued to decline in some areas, and elsewhere to decreased first and then increased. The core area of Chang-Zhu-Tan and the central urban areas of some prefectures have always been high-value areas for the quality of urban space utilization; the agricultural space utilization quality in the Dongting Lake Plain area and the Chang-Zhu-Tan area were high. By 2020, the range of Chang-Zhu-Tan agricultural space categorized as of high-value utilization quality areas has been significantly reduced; the high-value ecological space utilization quality areas were located in areas with large ecological scales, such as counties in the Wuling Mountains, etc. (2) From 2010 to 2020, the near-imbalance and barely balanced development have always been the main types of balanced development, and the balanced development in the core area of Chang-Zhu-Tan and Dongting Lake plain is high. (3) From 2010 to 2020, the types of high-quality utilization of territorial space in Hunan Province were mainly urban-agricultural-ecological spaces with low-quality equilibrium, and high-quality utilization of county areas were rare. The number of high-quality utilization counties was gradually decreasing, and by 2020, there was only one in Wuling District, Changde City. Therefore, the other 121 counties’ territorial space utilization status needs to be improved. (4) The high-quality utilization of territorial space in Hunan province was influenced by both regional background factors and external factors, and the external factors were more significant. Among them, population density, consumption level and other factors played an important role. Relevant departments can take effective measures to promote the efficient and coordinated use of county territorial space by taking such measures as relaxing the conditions for the introduction of talents, increasing financial investment, and so on.
