Abstract：The rural communities occur largely and its number is quickly increasing in the recent years, and they play a very important role in the course of the rural economic development and the rural settlement change. So it is an important study of the geographical location selection of rural communities, and it's very urgent to look for a theory to support this significant spatial decision-making. So, the paper sticks to the view point that Spatial Interface Theory is a suitable theory for the geographical location selection of rural communities. These interfaces are these important connection places in the course of rural economic development,and the existing facts show that the space interfaces are relatively active regions of the corresponding space human-activities, there is a close correlation in each space of the rural communities, and these location is of great vital to rural development. Based on the analysis of the orientation and evolution of spatial interface during the site selection of traditional rural areas as well as the farmer's demand under the new situation, it is concluded that there are four inclinations during the site selection of rural community:fringe areas of cities and towns, these regions along the transportation lines, these influence areas outside of industrial agglomerations and near other resources. We select a study case of Qinglan community which lies in Zhecheng county,Shangqiu city, Henan province, China, and the community stays in the Plain of Huanghuai River which area is above 310 thousand square kilometers, then we made the analysis of the geographical location selection of the rural community in the conditions of transportations, river systems, rural settlements, and other factors.
