A residents' committee in Weifang, Shandong, co-located with the Communist Party's neighbourhood committee, the service centre for party and mass, and the militia company

The status of a residents' committee is equivalent to that of a villagers' committee in the countryside, both of which do not belong to the state organs.[8]

On 23 October 1949, the representatives of the residents of Shangyangshi Street, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, elected the first residents' committee of the People's Republic of China, the Shangyangshi Street Residents' Committee.[9]
