Abstract：Based on the economic development data from 2000 to 2009 of 80 counties in Jiangxi province, this article probes the temporal characteristics of county economic in Jiangxi province by standard deviation and coefficient of variation, discusses the spatial pattern of county economic and the process of the divergence change by the principal component analysis and ARCGIS technology. The results show: 1)Since 2000, the absolute disparities of county level in Jiangxi province has constantly enlarged and the relative disparity has shown stable trend, because of the titled and unbalanced economic development strategy which was implemented by Jiangxi in recent years. At the same time, the overall economic difference expanded slowly from 2000 to 2004, but expanded quickly from 2004 to 2009. 2)Through the comprehensive scores of counties, we can conclude there is an obvious economic difference in Jiangxi. Besides, through the pictures which show the spatial difference of county's economic development level of Jiangxi province in 2000 and 2009, we can find that spatial distribution of county-level economy have the following features: the well-developed counties are grouped in the middle areas of Jiangxi province, along main lines of transportation and the Yangtze River; the undeveloped counties are around the well-developed counties, presenting an irregular ring; in view of the overall situation, the economic development level of counties in Jiangxi province is higher in the southern part than that in the northern part of Jiangxi province; from the aspect of the number of each level counties, we can get a number pyramid structure. Finally this paper analyzes the possible factors which affect the distribution pattern of county economic in Jiangxi province from five aspects, namely, the differences of natural environment, geographic location, regional development strategies, the labor force quality and the central city's scale and comprehensive competitiveness.
