Abstract: An index model of relationship between built-up urban area and urban population is established and it reveals the long-term equilibrium relationship of population urbanization and land urbanization. The empirical test on 12 western provinces show that long-term land scale elastic coefficient is 1.48 (the reasonable international value is 1.12), which implies the imbalanced development between population urbanization and land urbanization, either back-warded population urbanization or advanced land urbanization. To be specific, results vary from a province to another: Chongqing and Ningxia score the highest, about twice the standard; in Gansu and Qinghai, the land scale elasticity coefficient is lower than the standard values; other provinces are in between. Based on the result, corresponding countermeasures and suggestions are put forward.

Key words: population urbanization, land urbanization, coordination
