Abstract

Based on the cross-sectional data in 2013 of counties and introduces the spatial econometric model, this paper analyzes the agglomeration of economic growth and its influence factors among counties in Yunnan. The results indicate that the county economic growth has an obviously spatial correlation and the economic growth has an obviously agglomeration in the geographical space. Ignoring the spatial effects causes the deviation of model setting. The counties of high level in economic growth are concentrated in the central regions of Yunnan, meanwhile the counties of low level are concentrated in some regions in the southern, northern and south-western regions of Yunnan. The gap of economic growth is significant among these regions. Factors such as consumption, labor and industrialization play a significant role in promoting regional economic growth. Based on the above empirical study, the author brings up some corresponding policies for local governments.
