Abstract Urbanization does not only include population urbanization, industrial urbanization and social urbanization, but is also closely related to the transformation of the administrative system, i.e. the transformation of towns into streets and village committees into neighbourhood committees. Therefore, the urbanization of administrative system is also one of the types of urbanization. Based on the data of administrative division structure, we defined the concept of management urbanization and measured the management urbanization level of 293 cities, and found that the management urbanization level at the level of township, street and village neighborhood committee is much lower than the population urbanization level. Compared with the population urbanization level, the western region lags behind the urbanization level of townships and village neighborhood committees the most, while the eastern region lags behind the urbanization level of neighborhood committees the most. It was found that variables such as economic development level, urban-rural income gap, and the proportion of non-agricultural industries had a facilitating effect on the management urbanization, while variables such as population urbanization speed, urban land price, and financial pressure had a negative effect on the management urbanization. Finally, according to the mechanism of the six variables influencing the urbanization level, it is proposed that in the future, we should pay attention to the coordinated promotion of urbanization and population urbanization, construct the adjustment and transformation mechanism of central government legislation, provincial government leadership, local and municipal government planning, and county and district government leading, pay attention to the cultivation of healthy economic development model, increase the financial support to the urbanization process and formulate corresponding strategies for specific problems.
