Xuhui

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Xuhui is GeoNames ID 1787957. Its recorded administrative path is Shanghai Municipality → Shanghai → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a third-order administrative seat.

Xuhui 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.

Population position inside fixed cohorts

Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Xuhui ranks 488 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 156; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 284.

Its 1,109,800 population value is 0.95 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 1.10 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Xuhui sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries.

Xuhui'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

Xuhui's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Shanghai at 3.103 km with 24,874,500 recorded people; Changning at 3.438 km with 694,900 recorded people; Huangpu at 5.51 km with 504,700 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 2.407 km. Compared with Shanghai, Xuhui's recorded population is 0.04 times as large. Against Xuhui, Shanghai 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 first-order administrative seat rather than third-order administrative seat.

Its recorded population is above Xuhui's. Against Xuhui, Changning 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 the same third-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is below Xuhui's. Against Xuhui, Huangpu 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 third-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is below Xuhui's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 22 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Xuhui's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the tightest tenth 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 1787957, the coordinate pair 31.1959 / 121.4471, country rank 156 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1796236 at 3.103 km bind Xuhui 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

Xuhui's reference point is 31.1959° north and 121.4471° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai is shared by 291 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA3 is shared by 60 rows. Xuhui's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

Xuhui's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Xuhui's place-class field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its time zone is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Xuhui, 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.
