History: before 1912, 1912–49, 1949–present Administrative division codes |
When referring to political divisions of China, town is the standard English translation of the Chinese 镇 (traditional: 鎮; pinyin: zhèn; Wade–Giles: chen4). The Constitution of the People's Republic of China classifies towns as third-level administrative units, along with for example townships (Chinese: 乡; pinyin: xiāng).[1] A township is typically smaller in population and more remote than a town.
Similarly to a higher-level administrative units, the borders of a town would typically include an urban core (a small town with the population on the order of 10,000 people), as well as rural area with some villages (村; cūn, or 庄; zhuāng).
