Since the reform and opening up, China’s socialist modernization construction has made remarkable achievements. At the same time, China’s regional income gap has gradually widened. Inter regional income gap caused by many larger reasons, including the impact of labor mobility and geographic concentration can’t be ignored. New classical economics theory that labor due to differences in wages between regions and flow, labor mobility by inhibiting the high income, the promotion of regional income growth in low income areas increased income, narrowing the regional income gap. However, since 90 time, reduce the large-scale labor mobility in China did not bring the regional income gap. What causes the huge contrast between theory and reality, labor mobility and geographic concentration effects on regional disparity of how, worthy of further study. Krugman et al. The establishment of the new economic geography theory provides a new perspective for the study of this problem. In this paper, in light of the new economic geography theory, center periphery model based analysis framework, in consideration of the influences of labor heterogeneity and spatial factors, according to the Labor Education labor force will be divided into ordinary labor and human capital, using the spatial econometric methods of the latest, discusses the influence of the concentration on the regional income gap two types of labor geography.In this paper, the combination of theory and practice, first through theoretical analysis and literature review, to clarify the mechanism of effect of regional income disparity concentrated labor geography, mastered the dynamic research; secondly, investigating the current situation of income gap among regions in China from multiple angles, using the entropy formula of location measurement from 2000 to 2012, 31 provinces and cities of our country labor geographic concentration, and analyzes its trend; finally, using spatial panel data model to analyze the influence on the regional income disparity centralized common labor and human capital geography. Research conclusions are as follows: ①The effects of different regional dimension display, China’s regional income disparity is big, but with the implementation of regional income gap to coordinate regional economic development strategy to ease slightly; China’s inter provincial labor geographic concentration is extremely uneven, eastern provinces far higher than the central and Western Provinces and cities labor force spatial aggregation, plough dynamic geographic concentration in 2008 show a downward trend, the human capital of the geographic concentration continued to strengthen, the loss of human capital in the middle area of serious. ② Labor geographic concentration has significant spatial autocorrelation, which’s dynamic space from spatial correlation slowed, human capital related enhancement, labor force spatial aggregation is mainly high-high, low-low distribution mode. ③ The general labor and human capital promote the geographic concentration of regional income increase, labor force spatial aggregation exists significant spatial spillover effects, regional income and adjacent area labor force spatial aggregation state of close contact. ④ The results of decomposition spatial spillover effect shows, the general labor spatial aggregation will widen the income gap between the region, human capital spatial aggregation is conducive to narrowing income gap; in addition, inter regional differences in investment stock will expand the regional income gap; transportation infrastructure construction imbalance will be further deprived of backward area development opportunities, regional income disparity.Based on the research conclusions, this paper guide from promote the flow of factors, regional economic polycentric development point of view put forward the following suggestions: promoting industrial transfer and upgrading in eastern area of city construction, accelerate center-west region; to increase the input of education in central and western regions, tamp the talent introduction work, promote cross regional flows of human capital; increase the backward areas of traffic infrastructure construction efforts, to promote regional trade, optimize the investment environment.
