Abstract: Abstract Chinese modernization means keeping common prosperity up to date and minimizing the difference in urban residents’ and rural residents’ income is an essential path to materialize it. An analysis of the urban-rural income gap in eight major cities of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has been presented, demonstrating that growing the digital economy can help reduce this gap. The internet penetration rate and the proportion of industry practitioners have significant effects as well. Additionally, industrial structure, external development, and financial development also help greatly achieve a better balance in income between urban and rural areas.
