Type: article
Abstract: This study classified and statistically analyzed the urbanization status and spatial forms of 106 urban villages in Nanchang City in 1946, 1967, 1983, 2003, and 2023. Results clarified the transition from rural space to planned urban space in urban expansion process. Under urban planning and economic development, urban villages have evolved from spontaneous villages to a mixed grid pattern and ultimately a complete block. Historical urban planning policies, especially those before 1983, played an important role in urban village formation. The public facilities during the planned economy period were confirmed to contribute to urban-rural spatial integration in Nanchang City.
