“The Material Consumption Index” is a specific component of “The Measuring System of People’s Living Development Index of China”，and it is the second of three second-class subsystems in unattached “The Evaluation System of People’s Living Consumption Demand Status of China”. Based on the fiducial value since 2000，the longitudinal measurement shows a largest rise in the material consumption index of The West，followed by The Central Regions，The East and The Northeast，which means some preliminary effects of the national strategy of regional balanced development；Tibet，Anhui，Gansu，Guizhou and Qinghai ranked top five. The lateral measurement based on no-gap ideal value in 2017 shows the gap still exists because of the poor coordination and balance；Shanghai，Beijing，Zhejiang，Tianjin and Jiangsu ranked top five. If the countrywide material consumption data should synchronously achieve a minimum ratio of the urban and rural until the bridging of the urban and rural ratio，the status index of people’s living consumption demand would be significantly enhanced.
