Abstract: With the increasing attention of urban development risk governance research, urban resilience has become a hot topic in this field. selecting 26 prefecture-level cities in the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River as the research objecton urban resilience indicators from 2006 to 2021 evolutionary resilience theory employ entropy evaluation method to measure the level of urban resiliencehe spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of urban resilience the main influence factors of urban resilience evolution panel data regression models finally the development trend of urban resilience  through gray prediction models. The research results indicate that: (1) During the research period, the overall level of urban resilience in the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River s relatively low, with a slow, sustained and steady growth trend in urban resilience significant regional differences, small dispersion, and a slow convergence trend; Regions with high resilience  while low resilience regions widely distributed, which basically formed the ‘core-periphery’ spatial pattern of regular triangular shape with high resilient zone at the apex, medium and low resilient zones at the edge.（2) The intensity of openness, diversification of industrial structure, and urbanization level the main influencfactors the development and change of urban resilience in the region, with urbanization level having the greatest impact, the intensity of openness and diversification of industrial structure having slightly weaker impact, and administrative and innovation capabilities having no significant impact on urban resilience. Therefore, it is necessary to further improve regional administrative management and innovation capabilities. (3) In the future, the urban resilience of the research area still exhibit a steady growth trend, and the overall level of urban resilience will be significantly improved. Regions with high resilience will significantly increase, and regional differences might be expanding. The core position of regional central cities such as Wuhan, Changsha, Nanchang, and Zhuzhou will be further， and the “core-periphery” urban resilience spatial pattern will be further stabilized.
