Under Beijing Government we have 14 districts; under each district we have several subdistricts; under subdistricts, we have residential communities or neighbourhoods in Beijing. Beijing also has two counties under its administration. <\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">Subdistricts are the smallest political divisions\u00a0in Beijing and\u00a0other urban areas in China as well.

So it is said that subdistricts will disappear and be replaced by communities. So in future districts will contact directly with commuinitied without subdistricts in between, thus thining the administration levels in Beijing.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">Basically a community is composed of several gated communities or living blocks.
