Abstract
Our research selects 8 prefecture level cities in east and northwest Guangdong, uses entropy weight TOPSIS method, constructs an index system to evaluate economic development from the four dimensions of economic growth, human development, industrial development, scientific and technological innovation. We analyze the differences of economic development among cities, and then make policy recommendations according to their weaknesses. The data results show that Shantou has strong overall economic strength, and is the city with the strongest economic strength in east and northwest Guangdong; Zhanjiang has strong economic development and large geographical area, but its economic growth and industrial development factors are weak; The economic development of Meizhou, Qingyuan, Heyuan and Yunfu needs new ideas.
