Towns and Subdistricts

The five subdistricts and three towns of Lishui District. Each entry gives its unit type, seat, area and the number of villages and communities under it, following the district government’s administrative divisions page; where a second official figure exists, both are shown.

Added up, the areas and committee counts give the district totals; they differ slightly from the rounded figures on the district profile page, and entries show both.
