Abstract: With the intensification of the contradiction between living space and population growth, it is necessary to improve the effectiveness of urban residential land allocation. This study systematically reviews 169 papers following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol to collect and collate the contributing factors that affecting the supply of and demand for urban residential land for different countries, and a statistical analysis of long-term series data is conducted to further verify the rationality of the contributing factors. Based on systematic literature review and empirical analysis, the contributing factor set is constructed to serve the decision-making of residential land allocation. The main findings indicate that the population, house price, income, rent, mortgage loan, investment, the number of affordable houses, GDP, employment, housing stock and migration are the general contributing factors that significantly affect allocation of urban residential land. A systematic understanding of general contributing factors will help decision-makers more intuitively realize the urgent problems of urban residential land supply. Moreover, there are some specific contributing factors influencing the allocation of urban residential land in different types of countries, and the identification of specific contributing factors provides different perspectives on residential land allocation for the differentiated global development status. The contribution of this study is to assist decision-makers formulate more rational residential land allocation strategies by systematically sorting out the contributing factors influencing residential land allocation.
