Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Ji'an is GeoNames ID 1806445. Its recorded administrative path is Ji'an Shi → Jiangxi → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat.
Ji’an 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 2021-10-11; 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, Ji'an ranks 1,044 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 273; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 553.
Its 538,699 population value is 0.46 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 0.53 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Ji'an sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries.
Ji'an'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

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 47.732 km. Compared with Xinyu, Ji'an's recorded population is 0.64 times as large. Against Ji'an, Xinyu follows Xinyu → Jiangxi → 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 Ji'an's. Against Ji'an, Yichun follows Yichun Shi → Jiangxi → 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 Ji'an's. Against Ji'an, Pingxiang follows Pingxiang Shi → Jiangxi → 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 Ji'an's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 595 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Ji'an's nearest-coordinate gap sits in the second quarter 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 1806445, the coordinate pair 27.1172 / 114.9793, country rank 273 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1788508 at 76.54 km bind Ji'an 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
Ji'an's reference point is 27.1172° north and 114.9793° 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. Ji'an's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.
Ji'an's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Ji'an's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Ji'an, 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.
