Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Jiaxing is GeoNames ID 1805953. Its recorded administrative path is Jiaxing Shi → Zhejiang → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat.
Jiaxing 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 2025-03-18; 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, Jiaxing ranks 454 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 146; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 265.
Its 1,180,000 population value is 1.01 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 1.17 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Jiaxing sits in the second quarter of this atlas's China population cohort.
Jiaxing's recorded value stays within one quarter of 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
Jiaxing's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Jinshan at 52.757 km with 822,776 recorded people; Songjiang at 54.992 km with 1,973,500 recorded people; Qingpu at 56.577 km with 1,271,424 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 3.82 km. Compared with Jinshan, Jiaxing's recorded population is 1.43 times as large. Against Jiaxing, Jinshan follows Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → China in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries fourth-order administrative seat rather than second-order administrative seat.
Its recorded population is below Jiaxing's. Against Jiaxing, Songjiang follows Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → China in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries third-order administrative seat rather than second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Jiaxing's. Against Jiaxing, Qingpu follows Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → China in the source.
Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected China cohort, uses the shared Asia/Shanghai identifier, and carries third-order administrative seat rather than second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Jiaxing's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 458 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Jiaxing'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 1805953, the coordinate pair 30.7522 / 120.7500, country rank 146 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 13608000 at 52.757 km bind Jiaxing 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
Jiaxing's reference point is 30.7522° north and 120.7500° 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. Jiaxing's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.
Jiaxing's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Jiaxing's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Jiaxing, 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.
