[Objective] This study aims to investigate the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of rural settlements in Jiangxi Province, and to analyze the influencing factors. The findings can serve as reference and decision-making basis for promoting the national rural revitalization strategy, optimizing territorial spatial planning, and enhancing rural governance. [Methods] The spatiotemporal evolution of rural settlements in Jiangxi Province from 2000 to 2020 was examined by using landscape pattern indices, kernel density analysis, and gravity shift model. The buffer analysis and geographic detection were employed to explore the influencing factors. [Results](1)The number of rural settlements in Jiangxi Province decreased, but their scale expanded over rime. The variation between different settlement scales initially increased and then decreased, while the irregularity of settlement patterns remained generally low.(2)While the overall change in rural settlement distribution in Jiangxi Province was modest, significant spatial differences were observed. The pattern exhibited a spatial distribution of dense pattern in the middle and sparse on all sides, dense pattern in the north and sparse in the south.(3)The center of gravity of rural settlements in Jiangxi Province remained relatively stable over the past two decades, consistently located in the southwest of Fengcheng City.(4)Rural settlements in Jiangxi Province were mainly found in areas with elevations below 200 m and slopes between 5° and 15°. They were notably influenced by rivers, county and township roads, while railways, highways, national roads and provincial roads had minimal impact. Among socio-economic factors, the output value of grain crops, rural residents' the consumption expenditure, and cultivated land area had the most significant influence. [Conclusion] The spatiotemporal evolution of rural settlements in Jiangxi Province remained stable during 2000—2020. The distribution of rural settlements was influenced by location, natural and socio-economic factors.
