Yuncheng

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Yuncheng is GeoNames ID 1785738. Its recorded administrative path is Yuncheng Shi → Shanxi → China, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat.

Yuncheng 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 2025-08-20; 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, Yuncheng ranks 814 by recorded population. Inside the 296 selected China entries it ranks 237; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 455.

Its 680,036 population value is 0.58 times the 1,165,375 median for the country cohort and 0.67 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Yuncheng sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected China entries.

Yuncheng'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.

Nearest-reference pattern

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 95.178 km. Compared with Sanmenxia, Yuncheng's recorded population is 1.02 times as large. Against Yuncheng, Sanmenxia follows Henan → 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 Yuncheng's. Against Yuncheng, Changzhi (Yuncheng Shi) follows Yuncheng Shi → Shanxi → 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 second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Yuncheng's. Against Yuncheng, Linfen follows Linfen Shi → Shanxi → 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 second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Yuncheng's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 333 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Yuncheng'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 1785738, the coordinate pair 35.0231 / 110.9928, country rank 237 of 296, and neighbor GeoNames 1796669 at 32.535 km bind Yuncheng 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

Yuncheng's reference point is 35.0231° north and 110.9928° 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. Yuncheng's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

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