Abstract: This paper uses a series of statistical analysis methods to measure and explore the stage evolution characteristics of the comprehensive level of development quality of 30 provinces in China from 2010 to 2021. Results shows that the overall development quality level of China’s new urbanization has improved rapidly during the period under investigation. However, the development quality levels of most provinces are not high. Wisdom and innovation constructions are becoming important driving forces for the high-quality development of China’s new urbanization, while the weaknesses of humanity and livability construction may form short-boards. For the dynamic evolution, the eastern region shows a remarkable dominant driver evolution trend, the central and western regions present clearly balanced promotion evolution trends, while the northeastern region shows a distinct two-peak parallel evolution trend. In terms of the spatial pattern, the development quality level of China’s new urbanization has formed a club convergence spatial pattern feature. Reasons are that each region is path-dependent in the process of new urbanization development, and the effects of “high neighbor regions promoting local upgrading and low neighbor regions inhibiting local upgrading” consolidate this kind of spatial pattern. Our research provides inspirations for the statistical monitoring of China’s new urbanization development quality and the research on sustainable urbanization development.
