ABSTRACT: According to the study on the characteristics of poplar industrial cluster and
it’s population effect in North Jiangsu, we find that the urbanization transformation
of the quantitative characteristics, structural features and flow characteristics
of population, and the characteristics of regional settlement are
obvious in the process of the poplar industrial cluster development. The spatial
indication, the characteristics of industrial structure, enterprise composition
and spatial heterogeneity of industrial clusters are the important factors
influencing the urbanization of rural population. Cultivating local industrial
clusters that are suitable for regional natural, economic and social environment
is an important measure to promote the in-situ urbanization of rural
population.
