Abstract: Based on the connotation of rural revitalization strategy, a rural revitalization evaluation index system was constructed. The entropy method was used to calculate the development level of rural revitalization in various regions of Anhui Province from 2018 to 2022, and the Dagum Gini coefficient was further used to analyze the differences and sources among different regions. Research has found that the level of rural revitalization in most areas of Anhui Province is relatively low, with an overall pattern of southern Anhui>northern Anhui> central Anhui, and there are significant differences in the level of rural revitalization among different regions. The overall rural revitalization index of Anhui Province is in a good trend of increasing year by year, but its performance varies from region to region. From the perspective of regional differences, the imbalance in rural revitalization and development in Anhui Province is more prominent, with the trend of further widening differences in the northern and southern regions of Anhui, except for Anhui and other regions. Every region should develop and strengthen its unique industries based on its resource endowment, give full play to the leading role of party building and improve the level of rural governance, create a civilized rural area with Anhui style and charm guided by the core socialist values, continue to carry forward the spirit of daring to be the first, reform and innovate to enhance the level of agricultural modernization, and utilize the radiation driving effect of star shaped regions to narrow regional disparities.

Key words: rural revitalization, evaluation index system, horizontal measurement, regional differences
