Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Baise is GeoNames ID 1816269. Its recorded administrative path is Baise Shi → Guangxi → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Baise occurs once as a primary city label in this atlas sample; the numeric ID remains the durable source key if names change. The city row itself was updated 2025-08-19; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Population position inside fixed cohorts
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Baise ranks 808 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 235; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 451. Its 686,078 population value is 0.59 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 0.68 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Baise sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries. Baise's recorded value is materially below the country-cohort median used here. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.
Nearest-reference pattern
Baise's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Nanning at 209.773 km with 3,839,800 recorded people; Laibin at 264.485 km with 910,282 recorded people; Anshun at 271.541 km with 765,313 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 61.768 km. Compared with Nanning, Baise's recorded population is 0.18 times as large. Against Baise, Nanning follows Nanning Shi → Guangxi → China in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries first-order administrative seat rather than second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Baise's. Against Baise, Laibin follows Laibin Shi → Guangxi → China in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries the same second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Baise's. Against Baise, Anshun follows Anshun Shi → Guizhou → China in the source. Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries the same second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Baise's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 1,020 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Baise's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the wider half of atlas distances. This pattern can reveal whether other catalog references are geographically close, but it cannot establish whether a border crossing is possible or practical, or whether rail, road, fare, or journey-time connections exist. Read as one record signature, GeoNames 1816269, the coordinate pair 23.8901 / 106.6268, country rank 235 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1799869 at 209.773 km bind Baise to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Coordinate, time-zone and class cohorts
Baise's reference point is 23.8901° north and 106.6268° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai is shared by 291 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Baise's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Baise's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Baise's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Baise, so the profile preserves that missing value instead of guessing terrain. Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
