The county economy is the basic unit of national economy, and it has an important role in improving the level of regional modernization. County economic differences is a widespread social and economic phenomenon, and moderate differences can stimulate regional economic development, and then achieve an overall balanced economic development by "diffusion effect". While if the difference is too large, it will produce a series of negative effects on the economic and social development, and hinder the regional economic development. Under new situations and circumstances, Gansu county economic development shows a lot of discord, which affects the process of building a well-off society.Based on regional economic theories, this article studys on Gansu county economic differences and their spatial pattern changes from1998to2010year. Firstly, this article introduces regional economic theories.
