Abstract: According to availability of rural data, and the actual situation of economic development in different areas, 1 first grade index, 2 grade indices and 20 third grade indices are selected to establish the measurement index system of circular economic development level in rural areas. According to the relevant data, standardized processing of data is conducted. Evaluation on circular economic level in Hebei Province by Factor Analysis indicates that comprehensive score of Shijiazhuang, Qinghuangdao and Tangshan Cities is the highest, that of Xingtai, Handan, Langfang, Baoding, Cangzhou Cities is at a medium level, and that of Hengshui, Chengde and Zhangjiakou is the lowest. Meanwhile, cluster analysis on data after standardization shows that Handan, Baoding, Qinhuangdao, Xingtai, Langfang, Cangzhou and Hengshui belong to the first class; Shijiazhuang and Tangshan belong to the second class; and Zhangjiakou and Chengde belong to the third class. Thus, we can conclude that rural circular economic status in Hebei Province is determined by the proximity of geography and landscape feature. Finally, countermeasures are put forward to realize the harmonious development of rural economy, society and environment and to promote the process of new socialist countryside construction, such as increasing governments’ input in construction of rural circular economy, promoting the development of rural circular economy from the aspect of industrial policy, promoting the construction of rural circular economic market in adjacent areas, and implementing mandatory public participation.
