As atypical resource-abundant city, Ordos has the same problems. Based on the summaryof previous research and theory, this article firstly analyzes the income situation ofOrdos. The increment speed of income is dramatically slower than that of economic,and the income structure of urban residents differentiate from that of rural residents,and the gap between them become wider. Besides, income gap is also obviousbetween different districts, industries, ownership and groups.
