Abstract Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in China from 2005 to 2016, this paper uses the spatial autocorrelation model to conduct a theoretical analysis and empirical research on the impact of urban renewal on urban poverty in China. The results show that urban renewal affects urban poverty through employment creation, upgrading human capital, increasing living costs and reducing labor participation rate; urban renewal levels in different regions show different characteristics:urban renewal levels in eastern regions are the highest, followed by central regions and the weakest in western regions; urban poverty among provinces in China shows strong spatial dependence. Urban renewal is conducive to the reduction of urban poverty, mainly through employment creation and improvement of human capital level. The upgrading of industrial structure, unemployment insurance level and medical level also contributes to the reduction of urban poverty. Finally, on the basis of the research, this paper puts forward the policy enlightenment of determining the urban renewal mechanism with public participation, enriching the housing assistance system and strengthening the employment training for urban poor residents.
