Xinqiao Community

Overview

Xinqiao Community belongs to Jingqiao Town and is the seat of the town people's government. The district government's administrative divisions page gives Jingqiao Town an area of 134.52 km² with 5 residents' committees and 7 villagers' committees, and records the seat as "Xinqiao Residents' Committee".

The five residents' committees are Taocun, Hangcun, Xinqiao, Fengxiangling and Ruijia; the seven villagers' committees are Shuijing, Dacun, Zhishan, Yunheshan, Kongjia, Xiantan and Taicun. Ruijia is a residents' committee and contains the provincial traditional village of Shishanxia; Taicun is a villagers' committee and is itself a provincial traditional village. The seat does not share the town's name. The boundaries, household count and population of Xinqiao Community are not recorded in the sources used here.

Official uses of the place name Xinqiao, and the limits of the seat record

The place name Xinqiao can be checked in two further official documents. First, the public notice of 3 June 2026 of the fifth batch of district place-name cultural heritage, in the category of commemorative facilities, lists under the row for Jingqiao Town the two entries "Xinqiao Rally Site" and "Xinqiao Battle Site", which shows that Xinqiao is a place name still in use within Jingqiao Town. That document is a draft seeking comment; it gives only names and affiliation at town level, with no dates and no community, so it cannot be used to place the two sites within the jurisdiction of Xinqiao Community.

Second, the Jingqiao Town profile page under the district government's subdistrict and town profiles section records "Jingqiao Town borders Shijiuhu to the west", a statement of location that does not concern the seat.

The limits of the seat record must be stated: Xinqiao as the seat of the town people's government appears only in the seat column of the administrative divisions page. Jingqiao Town existed before 2015, and this library holds no approval document for its establishment or its seat, so the seat has nothing to corroborate it; the two documents above confirm only the existence and use of the place name Xinqiao, not the seat.

Points of doubt

• The residents' committees of Jingqiao Town — Taocun, Hangcun and Ruijia — end in or consist of village names, yet their tier is that of residents' committees; this library records the official wording without rewriting the suffix.
• The extent, date of establishment and origin of the name of Xinqiao Community are not recorded in the sources used here.
• Xinqiao as the seat of the town people's government rests on a single source, the administrative divisions page; this library holds no approval document or street address for Jingqiao Town against which to check it.
• The relation of "Xinqiao Rally Site" and "Xinqiao Battle Site", attached to Jingqiao Town without a community in the district place-name cultural heritage notice, to the jurisdiction of Xinqiao Community awaits checking.
