This paper constructs an econometric model by extracting panel data from 2012 to 2021 to study how e-commerce impacts the consumption disparity of rural-urban divide respectively in different natural geographical regions.The results show that the development of e-commerce in China from 2012 to 2021 has widened the consumption gap between urban and rural residents.However,in the long run,in North-east China,East China and Central China,e-commerce has hindered the widening of the gap between ur-ban and rural consumption.Therefore,the government should insist on the development of e-commerce,and develop characteristic e-commerce according to local conditions,so as to bring positive role of e-com-merce into good play in the consumption gap between urban and rural residents.
