  ABSTRACT: Based on the 2015 China General Society Survey (CGSS 2015), the Order Logit model is used to study the impact of income inequality and the use of information media on the subjective well-being of Chinese residents. The study finds that income inequality significantly reduced residents’ subjective well-being; the use of information media has a significant positive impact on residents’ subjective well-being and cushions the negative impact of income inequality on happiness; compared with rural residents, income inequality has a greater impact on urban residents’ happiness; the use of information media has a more significant impact on the well-being of rural residents, and its buffering effect is also more pronounced among rural residents.
