Yueyang

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Yueyang is GeoNames ID 1927639. Its recorded administrative path is Yueyang Shi → Hunan → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place.

Yueyang 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, Yueyang ranks 559 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 178; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 325.

Its 991,465 population value is 0.85 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 0.98 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Yueyang sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries.

Yueyang'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

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 15.962 km. Compared with Heshan, Yueyang's recorded population is 0.79 times as large. Against Yueyang, Heshan follows Yiyang Shi → Hunan → 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 second-order administrative seat rather than populated place.

Its recorded population is above Yueyang's. Against Yueyang, Xianning follows Xianning Prefecture → Hubei → 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 second-order administrative seat rather than populated place. Its recorded population is below Yueyang's. Against Yueyang, Changsha (Hunan) follows Changsha Shi → Hunan → 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 first-order administrative seat rather than populated place. Its recorded population is above Yueyang's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 751 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Yueyang's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the wider half 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 1927639, the coordinate pair 29.3746 / 113.0948, country rank 178 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1808316 at 115.339 km bind Yueyang 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

Yueyang's reference point is 29.3746° north and 113.0948° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Shanghai is shared by 291 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows. Yueyang's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

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