[Objective] There is a coupling and coordinating relationship between rational land use and urbanization development. This paper studied the coupling and coordinating degree, the relative development degree and the influence of each index on the coordination degree of land use efficiency and urbanization level in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos region from 2006 to 2015, in order to provide decision-making basis for sustainable land use and urbanization development in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos region.[Methods] The coordination relationship and influence degree between land use benefit and urbanization were evaluated based on coupling coordination modeland grey correlation model.[Results] ① The land use benefit and urbanization level have steadily increased in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos region. The biggest increase one was Hohhot, whose value was 0.373 8 and 0.362 6, respectively. ② The benefit of land use efficiency lagged behind the level of urbanization in Hohhot City. The benefit of land use synchronized with the level of urbanization in Baotou City. The level of urbanization lagged behind the benefit of land use in Ordos City during the period from 2010 to 2014. ③ The coupling degree was at a high level, and the coordination degree was from weak to strong in the whole research region.[Conclusion] The overall coordination between land use efficiecny and urbanization was developing well in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos region. However, according to the current condition of coordination, urban socialization construction should be improved and land use should be reasonably planned, so as to promote the quality coordination condition between land use and urbanization.
