%X Villages-in-the-city(i.e.Chengzhongcun),as distinctive urban spaces in Chinese cities,has attracted great attentions during the last two decades.Few literatures,however,have focused on the basically economic characteristics and spatial distribution of informal sectors run by migrants in Chengzhongcun.In fact,due to non-strict regulated situation,low-rent housing market and favorable location,Chengzhongcun has become ideal areas for the agglomeration of informal economic sectors.Although most of these informal economic sectors are sorts of neighborhood service,there are probably some manufacturing industries.Based on a case study of Kangle village in Guangzhou,a typical Chengzhongcun with booming manufacturing factories,this research tries to explore the basic economic characteristics and spatial distribution of manufacturing factories in Chengzhongcun.Field work is carried out to obtain economic data using semi-structured questionnaire through face-to-face interviews with 428 owners or responsible persons of the enterprises selected by convenient and snowball sampling.Location of the samples covers major manufacturing area in the village.In addition,land-use pattern of the village is investigated by dividing the whole village into small grids to describe the spatial distribution of manufacturing enterprises.The results show that most of the factories in the center of Kangle village are garment processing workshops built by migrants.The factories have the attributes of temporality,endogeneity,the diversity of native places of owners,and informality,and the basic economic characteristics of which are small scale,loosing production linkage with each other,and lack of technological innovation.Moreover,many workshops are situated in residential buildings and significantly influenced by the road and alley network in the village.Industrial,residential and commercial land is mixed in vertical space,and factories with similar products are relatively agglomerated.The manufacturing enterprises in Kangle village are not passively isolated only by low cost,but are actively agglomerated because of both low cost and favorable location.
