Baima Community

Overview

Baima Community belongs to Baima Town and is the seat of the town people's government. The district government's administrative divisions page gives Baima Town an area of 145.86 km² with 6 residents' committees and 4 villagers' committees, and records the seat as "Baima Residents' Committee".

The six residents' committees are Jingu, Baima, Zhujiabian, Bailong, Shangyang and Gexin; the four villagers' committees are Caojiaqiao, Shitouzhai, Dashuxia and Fushan. The seat shares the town's name. The boundaries, household count and population of Baima Community are not recorded in the sources used here.

Corroboration from the village lists

The village names under Baima Town can be cross-checked against the administrative divisions page in several lists. The first batch of traditional villages of Jiangsu, carried on the provincial housing department's website on 8 April 2020, includes four entries in Lishui District, one of which is written as "Lixiang, Shitouzhai Village, Baima Town" — and Shitouzhai Village is one of the four villagers' committees of Baima Town on the administrative divisions page.

The public notice of 27 June 2022 of the first batch of Lishui place-name cultural heritage lists under the row for Baima Town the two place names Huifeng Mountain and Wulong Chan Temple, which shows that the jurisdiction of Baima Town also includes Huifeng Mountain and Wulong Chan Temple; the administrative affiliation of Huifeng Mountain is treated in the entry on the shanshui site, and this entry records only the fact that the list attaches those names to Baima Town.

It must be noted that these two documents corroborate only individual villages and place names under Baima Town, and are not direct records of Baima Community itself; the establishment history and extent of Baima Community still have no source.

Points of doubt

• Baima Community shares its name with Baima Town; town and community have separate entries, and the origin of the town's name is not recorded in the sources used here.
• The extent, date of establishment and origin of the name of Baima Community are not recorded in the sources used here.
• For the totals of 6 residents' committees and 4 villagers' committees of Baima Town, this library holds no approval document listing the names one by one, so the differences before and after 2018 cannot be checked name by name.
