Abstract: Abstract China has entered an era of accelerated urbanization. In 2011, China’s urbanization rate reached 51.3% and the urban population exceeded the rural population. To speed up urbanization and allow peasants to work in cities can increase peasants’ income, expand domestic demand, save rural land, which will achieve large-scale agricultural operations, increase agricultural productivity, improve rural environment and play an important role in solving China’s three rural issues and promote overall urban–rural development. However, in the rapid development of China’s urbanization, many regions have practiced the traditional urbanization model—that is, the pursuit of population-oriented urbanization through sprawling urban development by taking advantage of the low cost of land with the lack of infrastructure, public service and social security, which has led to high government budget deficits, lack of urban distribution planning, constraints of land resource, backward ecological environment construction, migrant workers’ lack of urban welfare and landless and laid-off peasants due to limited land and environmental carrying capacity.
