In the information age, new wave of technology revolution has profoundly changed our mode production and way life. Pseudo human settlements (PHS), consisting digits information, have become increasingly important in (HS) systems, a strong support for high-quality development global HS. Against this background, clarifying spatiotemporal heterogeneity driving mechanisms coupling coordination between PHS real (RHS) is great significance to HS providing reasonable explanation today’s man–land relationship. Therefore, we developed theoretical framework system describing PHS–RHS based on multi-source data such as internet socialization, public utility, remote sensing images, etc. Taking urban agglomeration middle reaches Yangtze River (UAMRYR), which key region consolidating China’s “two horizontal three vertical” urbanization strategy, case study area, comprehensively analyzed RHS its mechanism UAMRYR during period 2011–2021, by applying modified degree (CCD) other models. The results show are follows: (1) Temporal process—The CCD exhibited reverse L-shaped increasing trend. class varied significantly, with extremely uncoordinated severely classes present at beginning disappearing toward end period, while well coordinated highly were absent appeared period. (2) Spatial pattern—The an equilateral triangle-shaped, core–margin spatial pattern characteristic core polarization. Overall, distribution “high central region, low eastern western regions, balanced south–north direction”. (3) Dynamic evolution—The increased more rapidly north-eastern direction than south-western direction; north-eastward migration dispersion, variability decreased. (4) Driving mechanisms—The primary factors affecting significantly over time. living was dominant PHS, whereas RHS. had greater effect CCD. broadens research scope geography, establishes scientific foundation advancing construction UAMRYR, offers cities UAMRYR.
