Under the background that China's labor force is decreasing and they can move freely, this paper selects the Spatial Doberman model with time-individual fixed effects to analyze and study the spatial spillover effect and its impact mechanism of the labor agglomeration of 31 provinces in mainland China from 2003 to 2018 on regional economic growth. It was found that in China, the increase in the concentration of labor in a region and surrounding areas can promote economic growth in the region through the increase in marketization and the decline in the dependency ratio. However, the current regional economic growth in China is manifested by the promotion of labor agglomeration in the region and the suppression of labor agglomeration in the surrounding areas.
