Abstract: The main objective of the paper was to highlight the territorial disparities in terms of rural area modernization in Romania. For this purpose, a theoretical model was developed to measure the socio-economic modernization level based on several representative dimensions (demographic dimension, social dimension, economic dimension and ecological dimension), as well as a series of indicators specific to the investigated issue. The results indicated a continuation of the discrepancy trend, in the period 2007–2018, but the gap between the most modernized and the least modernized counties, in socio-economic terms, was reduced, with some of the counties in the upper part of the ranking moving to the lower part of the ranking.
