Abstract: This study examines the uneven economic development across China’s three major regions: the eastern, intermediate, and western areas. It highlights the rapid growth of the eastern coastal regions, fueled by geographical advantages, favorable policies, and foreign investment, while the central and western regions lag due to various constraints. This study aims to explore the actual situation of unequal economic development in the three major regions of China, assess the impacts of these inequalities on living standards, educational opportunities, and employment environments, and analyze the differences in policy formulation across regions. By utilizing a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, including data collection, statistical analysis, and case studies, the study seeks to provide insights that could inform government policies for achieving balanced regional development and enhancing overall social welfare in China.
