County-level city
People's Republic of China county-level subdivision
A county-level municipality (Chinese : 县级市 ), county-level city or county city , formerly known as prefecture-controlled city (1949–1970: 专辖市 ; 1970–1983: Chinese : 地辖市 ), is a county-level administrative division of the People's Republic of China . County-level cities have judicial but no legislative rights over their own local law and are usually governed by prefecture-level divisions , but a few are governed directly by province-level divisions .

Comparable territorial divisions in other countries
While the idea of a "city" being a unit consisting of several "towns" is not a common one in English-speaking world , a somewhat similar naming convention is used for local government areas in some parts of Australia.
For example, in New South Wales such a unit may often be called a "city" (rather than a traditional "shire"), and consist of "towns". E.g. City of Blue Mountains is made of a number of towns (Katoomba , Springwood , etc.).
