The study shows that the competency model of local government statistician includes four dimensions, which are enterprising practical personality, organizational and problem-solving abilities, statistical data collection and processing skills, systematic and professional knowledge. According to the current situation analysis, the four competencies of the local government statistician are all up to higher levels. The order of the four dimensions’ mean value from high to low is enterprising practical personality, organizational and problem-solving abilities, systematic and professional knowledge, statistical data collection and processing skills. There is no significant difference in gender and education background of local government statistician, but there is significant difference in the time of service in statistics and types of work. On this basis, the paper puts forward some related countermeasures.
