Abstract Improving residents' subjective well-being is an important goal of building a harmonious and livable city and realizing people's desire for a better life. The ultimate goal of social and economic development and related policies is to enhance residents' well-being. However, with the increase of urbanization rate and per capita disposable income level in China, residents' subjective well-being shows a trend of decreasing instead of rising. Based on the 2016 Chinese labor force dynamic survey data, this paper uses a multilevel linear model to explore the relationship between urban educational attainment, average income and residents' subjective well-being. The conclusions are as follows:1) The happiness-income paradox does exist at the urban level in China. Urban economic variables have a significant negative correlation with residents' subjective well-being. 2) Compared with urban average income, urban educational attainment has a positive effect on residents' subjective well-being. 3) The interaction effect model shows that the impact of urban educational attainment on residents' well-being is complex, and there is obvious heterogeneity among different education groups.

Key words： subjective well-being happiness-income paradox multilevel linear model CLDS
