01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Jinshan—822,776, Asia/Shanghai, and source coordinates—from live travel claims. Those fields identify and compare the record; they do not prove current transport, accessibility, census totals, or a City Atlas Club visit.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Jinshan is GeoNames ID 13608000. Its recorded administrative path is Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a fourth-order administrative seat. Jinshan 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 2026-03-31; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Jinshan ranks 679 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 208; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 391. Its 822,776 population value is 0.71 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 0.82 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Jinshan sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries. Jinshan'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.
Jinshan's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Fengxiang at 16.81 km with 1,140,872 recorded people; Songjiang at 23.112 km with 1,973,500 recorded people; Minhang at 31.35 km with 2,716,600 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 14.54 km. Compared with Fengxiang, Jinshan's recorded population is 0.72 times as large. Against Jinshan, Fengxiang 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 populated place rather than fourth-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Jinshan's. Against Jinshan, Songjiang follows Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → 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 third-order administrative seat rather than fourth-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Jinshan's. Against Jinshan, Minhang 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 the same fourth-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Jinshan's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 233 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Jinshan's nearest-coordinate gap falls between the tightest tenth and quarter of the atlas. 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 13608000, the coordinate pair 30.8356 / 121.2937, country rank 208 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 13608002 at 16.81 km bind Jinshan to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Jinshan's reference point is 30.8356° north and 121.2937° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai is shared by 291 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA4 is shared by 4 rows. Jinshan's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Jinshan's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Jinshan's place-class field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its time zone is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Jinshan, 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.
