Abstract：The perfect harmony is important to rural human settlements (RHS) for sustainable development of rural region and country's stability.The difference between villagers' expectations and perceptions in reality is the key of how to construct RHS. Only by finding out what the villagers care most can scholars provide credible bases for governments to make rational policy. The paper tries to do some exploratory research on residents' satisfaction degree of RHS with the theories of public goods and fuzzy mathematics in forms of on-site investigation and questionnaire survey. It probes into the primary problems in the constructions of RHS from villagers' perspectives. Meanwhile, the paper gives some suggestions to promote the sustainable developments of RHS. Based on each town's regional characters, the paper constructs the satisfaction degree index system of RHS. The fuzzy judgments matrix is established through fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and checked whether the matrix is consistent with entropy method by using deviation matrix to adjust the fuzzy judgment matrix. The paper concludes the weight of each index, and evaluates the satisfaction degree of RHS on the method of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. The differences between villagers' expectations and perceptions in reality determine the key-point of RHS construction. After the analysis of villagers' satisfaction of RHS, the paper argues that rural drinking water safety is considered to be the most urgent problem of RHS construction. This problem not only hinders the sustainable development of RHS seriously, but also prevents villagers from getting good health directly. Also, the paper discusses the characters of rural drinking water safety, and suggests the key of protecting rural drinking water safety is the strong intervention of governments. Rural drinking water safety, one part of public goods, consists of several related elements with different characters. So it is a effective way to promote diverst subjects of public goods supply, so as to ensure the safty of raral drinking water.
