摘要：By selecting the relevant indices of data concerning the income and consumption of urban residents and rural residents in Chongqing City from 2000 to 2009, we adopt empirical analysis method and comparative analysis method to conduct comparative analysis from overall level, consumption structure and regional difference. The results show that income level is the most direct and fundamental factor impacting urban-rural residents' consumption, and eventually determines the consumption level and consumption structure of urban-rural residents; the consumption structure of urban-rural residents in Chongqing City takes on prominent dual structure. with conspicuous gap between urban areas and rural areas: the level of income and consumption of urban-rural residents in Chongqing City is lower than the national average, especially for the rural residents; the gap of income per capita and consumption per capita of rural residents in “One-hour Economic Circle” and “Two Wings” of Chongqing City is prominent. Corresponding policy suggestions are p a forward as follows: improve financial transfer payment system; quicken the pace of urbanization; coordinate urban-rural industrial development; guide farmers to establish correct consumption idea.
