根据测算，2018年安徽省的社会发展指数为0.397，较2017年的0.378略有上升。安徽省各地市的排名较2017年有细微变化。芜湖市在2018年安徽社会发展指数排名中名列前茅，紧随其后的包括马鞍山市、黄山市以及合肥市。随着我国对自然环境和民生等领域重视程度的提高、精准扶贫的实施，各地市2018年自然环境指数以及保障指数都有不同程度的提高。需要引起重视的是，2018年安徽省各地市社会发展指数以及各地市社会发展子指数仍然高度不平衡。

The rankings of cities in Anhui Province have changed slightly from 2017. Wuhu City ranked first in 2018，followed closely by Ma’anshan City，Huangshan City and Hefei City. With China’s increasing emphasis on the environment，people’s livelihood and other fields，and the implementation of targeted poverty alleviation，the 2018 natural environment index and social security index of various cities have increased to varying degrees. What needs to be paid attention to is that the social development index and social development sub-index of cities in Anhui Province in 2018 are still highly unbalanced.
