Abstract

This study examines the dynamics between urban scale expansion and regional economic growth, with a focus on the Chang-Zhu-Tan urban agglomeration in Hunan Province. Through an in-depth analysis of economic data over several years, we identify variations in the regional economic structure and urban construction. Employing linear and regression analyses, the research investigates the correlation between land use planning and economic growth, incorporating spatial-temporal characteristics and multidimensional space analysis to identify factors influencing urban expansion stages. Findings indicate that urban scale expansion correlates positively with coordinated socio-economic development, population growth, and urban transformation rates, displaying a pattern of intensification followed by a moderation phase, extending from central to peripheral areas. The study underscores the impact of regional economic conditions on urban expansion, advocating for enhanced regional industrial development and industrial optimization to bolster economic benefits.
