Under the goals of Chinese path to modernization governance, urban regeneration should undertake the important mission of high-quality development, realizing the modernization of system and capacity for urban governance. The post-assessment is an important part of the lifecycle management of urban regeneration, and its importance has become more prominent since it was connected with urban physical examination in 2021.This paper uses statistical, bibliometric, and data visualization methods to analyze the current research on post-urban regeneration assessment in China. On the basis of summarizing the spatiotemporal characteristics of post-urban regeneration assessment research in China, this paper constructs an overall analysis framework of “type-scale” and organizes the existing research on post-urban regeneration assessment in China. The main research findings are as follows: In terms of spatiotemporal characteristics: 1) The post-urban regeneration assessment in China has undergone a value transformation from economic benefits to comprehensive benefits. 2) Regions with high urbanization rates, such as Guangdong, Beijing, Shanghai, and Chongqing, exhibit a higher concentration of published studies on post-urban regeneration assessment. Furthermore, research in this domain within these regions demonstrates a rapid pace of development. 3) The existing research on post-urban regeneration assessment are lagging and fragmented, significantly influenced by relevant national and local policies and systems, urban regeneration practices, and actions.Research on the evaluation index system of existing urban regeneration have found that:1) The focus of post-urban regeneration assessment for different types of urban regeneration shares commonalities at the same scale. The macro-scale mainly focuses on its overall connection and interaction with the city, exploring the impact of various types of regeneration on the cultural, economic, social, and environmental functions of the city. At the mid-scale, various types of update objects are often viewed as a whole, and their post-assessment emphasizes more on the changes and effects of the whole itself, with an emphasis on exploring community cohesion. At the micro-scale, post-assessment is often conducted from aspects such as material space facilities and user satisfaction. 2) The type of regeneration and spatial scale are the main factors affecting the differences in postassessment indicator systems. Overall, the selection of indicators is mostly derived from domestic and international standards, established evaluation systems, keywords searches of relevant literature, and expert questionnaires. This approach ensures the scientific rigor and comprehensive coverage of the indicator selection process. Currently, the techniques for post-urban regeneration assessment in China mostly focus on multi-attribute decision-making, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, expert analysis, factor analysis, and other methods derived from sociology, economics, policy analysis, and other fields. In general, the current construction of post-urban regeneration assessment indicators lacks a deep understanding and emphasis on urban modern governance, and the assessment methods are still relatively conventional. Finally, this paper conducted a role reflection and future outlook on post-urban regeneration assessment research under the context of modern governance. we believe that
