At the community level, Jiangbei consists of nine street districts and three large communities . These are:

Shimahe Street District (石马河街道);

Dashiba Street District (大石坝街道);

Huaxinjie Street District (华新街街道);

"Liangjiang New District"

With the exception of the large communities of Fusheng and Wubao, the entire area of Jiangbeis also became part of the so-called "New District" Liangjiang (两江新区Liǎngjiāng Xīnqū ) founded on June 18, 2010 . It also includes parts of the Yubei and Beibei boroughs . However, Liangjiang is purely a measure to promote economic development; H. Liangjiang is not a city district in the administrative sense. It is administered by the "Liangjiang New District Development and Development Committee" (两江新区开发建设领导小组Liangjiang Xinqu kaifa jianshe lingdao xiaozu ), which is made up of representatives from Chongqing City and the districts concerned. Accordingly, Jiangbei will retain its previous administrative boundaries with its people's government and the associated political structures (People's Congress, Consultative Conference), at least for the time being.

Partnerships

Jiangbei has been twinned with the city of North Las Vegas , USA , since 2015.
