Spatial differentiation and influencing factors of labor migration from the perspective of nearby urbanization in Southwest China:A case study of Shuicheng district,Liupanshui city,Guizhou province
Emphasizing human-centered urbanization and promoting the nearby urbanization model are practical pathways in Southwest China to collectively advance the strategies of new urbanization and rural revitalization.This approach solidifies and extends the achievements in poverty alleviation while fostering regional coordinated development.This study takes Shuicheng district in Liupanshui city,Guizhou province,as the research area,using communities(villages)as basic units to depict the spatial differentiation pattern of labor nearby migration.It investigates the dominant industry drivers and explores key influencing factors and their spatial heterogeneity in labor nearby migration.The research reveals that:(1)Labor nearby migration in Shuicheng district revolves around the central area of Shuicheng district,presenting a spatial differentiation pattern comprising four layers:central layer,suburb layer,exurb layer,and expanding layer.(2)The intensity of labor nearby inflow in Shuicheng district exhibits a gradually declining trend with the destination level increasing.And the intensity of labor nearby outflow demonstrates a concentric distribution pattern,characterized by higher intensity in the center and lower intensity in the periphery,primarily driven by commerce,trade,services,industry and agriculture pluralism.(3)The spatial differentiation of labor nearby migration in Shuicheng district results from the combined impacts of destination attraction,origin repulsion,and intermediary barriers.Specifically,employment opportunities play a crucial role in attracting incoming workers while household life cycles contribute significantly towards outward migration patterns.(4)The key influencing factors of labor nearby migration in Shuicheng district exhibit spatial heterogeneity.The spatial differentiation of labor nearby inflow is categorized into two areas driven by non-agricultural employment opportunities and public infrastructure,as well as areas constrained by urban-rural income disparities and public service.The spatial differentiation of labor nearby outflow is classified into three types drivend by household life cycle and agricultural efficiency,comprehensive factors,and labor general skills.This study aims to provide a scientific basis for tailored high-quality urbanization development strategies in the context of the new urbanization agenda,centered around county towns and driven by industrial development,aiming to facilitate the nearby urbanization of approximately one hundred million people in the central and western China,offering region-specific strategies for high-quality urbanization development.
