First: the economic field

The GDP of Xianyang in 20 13 is 186039 billion yuan, and that of Zhuzhou in 20 13 is196 billion yuan. The economy of Zhuzhou is slightly stronger than that of Xianyang.

Second: geographical advantage

Xianyang is close to An and is promoting the integration of An and Xi 'an. ; As the largest city in northwest China, Xi has made great contributions to the economic development of Xianyang. Zhuzhou is close to Changsha, and the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan urban agglomeration is booming. It can be said that the location advantages of Xianyang and Zhuzhou are very obvious.

Third: the field of transportation.

Xianyang Airport is the eight hub airports in China, and one Xianyang International Airport is enough to kill the throughput of all airports in Hunan Province. Zhuzhou does not have its own airport. Although Zhuzhou has the intersection advantages of Shanghai-Kunming Railway and Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Beijing-Guangzhou High-speed Railway has been opened, and Xianyang has Longhai Railway, and Xibao Passenger Dedicated Line and Baolan Passenger Dedicated Line under construction have been opened. Because it is close to the provincial capital, the highway density is very high; Although Changsha's economy is stronger than Xi's; But Xi 'an is the largest city in the northwest and the national transportation hub. The expressway in Xianyang is obviously higher than that in Zhuzhou, which is very obvious from the map. Thanks to Xi 'an's care, Xianyang's comprehensive traffic is stronger than Zhuzhou's.

Fourth: natural ecology

This is the weakness of the northwest. Although Guanzhong area is not as dry as Gansu in Inner Mongolia, the climate is still dry, and the floating dust can't escape naturally. The forest coverage rate is too low. As a southern city, Zhuzhou has abundant precipitation and long sunshine hours, which is beneficial to plant growth.

On the whole, Xianyang's urban competitiveness is obviously stronger than Zhuzhou's. Because of Xi 'an's concern, Xianyang has been integrated into Xi 'an. This is the dividend of urban expansion; However, the natural environment in Zhuzhou is still relatively good. Xianyang, known as Qin Dou, has a long history. In addition, many colleges and universities in An have Xianyang campus, education level and historical position, which completely crushed Zhuzhou.
