Abstract

The rapid development of urbanization has aggravated the impact of natural disasters on cities. Cities are facing increasingly diverse disaster risks, which have seriously affected the safety of people's lives and property. As an important part of society, the population density of counties and districts is not lower than that of cities, but the infrastructure, social security and various emergency measures to deal with disaster risks lag far behind those of cities. As a result, county-level units are facing a greater risk of disasters and have seriously affected the safety of people's lives and property. Disaster resilience has become an important research object in resilience governance and social governance.
