Functional Assessment of Rural Counties Under the Production–Living–Ecological Framework: Evidence from Guangdong, China by Hongping Lian, Yuedong Zhang, Xuezhen Xiong, Wenjing Han

“…Living functions continue to decline due to population mobility and imbalanced public services. (2) Structural transformation of rural function types occurred: Weakly integrated counties decreased (2010–2019), dual function type counties (production–ecological and living–ecological) significantly increased, and ecology-dominant counties predominated, highlighting ecological polarization under policy interventions. (3) Functional evolution is driven by terrain gradients, policy regulation, and industrial relocation. …”
