The development of Low Carbon Economy is guided by the idea of Sustainable Development. Thus, if we want to evaluate the intensity of the utilization of land used as the rural residential areas from the view point of low carbon, we must choose indexes which reflect the requirement of sustainable development. In this study, the author choose indexes according to the PSR mode, that is, choose indexes based on the following three aspects: pressure, state and response. Though the relative evaluation in County Lai Shui, the author draws three conclusions. (1)The general level of the intensity of the utilization of land used as the rural residential areas in the case area is low; (2)Because of the variation in terrain and economic development level, the difference among areas is notable; (3)The investment in the construction of rural residential areas in the case area is unsatisfactory.
