Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Liuzhou is GeoNames ID 1803300. Its recorded administrative path is Liuzhou Shi → Guangxi → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Liuzhou 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 2026-04-29; 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, Liuzhou ranks 343 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 112; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 200. Its 1,436,599 population value is 1.23 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 1.42 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Liuzhou sits in the second quarter of this atlas's China population cohort. Liuzhou'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
Liuzhou's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Laibin at 66.806 km with 910,282 recorded people; Guigang at 135.678 km with 1,086,327 recorded people; Guilin at 139.153 km with 1,572,300 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 72.347 km. Compared with Laibin, Liuzhou's recorded population is 1.58 times as large. Against Liuzhou, Laibin follows Laibin Shi → Guangxi → China in the source. Its point has lower 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 below Liuzhou's. Against Liuzhou, Guigang follows Guigang 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 below Liuzhou's. Against Liuzhou, Guilin follows Guilin Shi → Guangxi → 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 second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Liuzhou's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 534 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Liuzhou'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 1803300, the coordinate pair 24.3241 / 109.4070, country rank 112 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1804609 at 66.806 km bind Liuzhou 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
Liuzhou's reference point is 24.3241° north and 109.4070° 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. Liuzhou's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Liuzhou's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Liuzhou's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Liuzhou, 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.
