Residents' committee
Simplified	居民委员会
Traditional	居民委員會
Also translated as	residents' association

The residents' committee^[1] (simplified Chinese: 居民委员会; traditional Chinese: 居民委員會; pinyin: jūmín wěiyuánhuì), shortened as juweihui or juwei in Chinese,^[2] also translated as neighborhood committee,^[3] residents' association,^[4] residential committee,^[5] is a grassroots mass autonomous organization^[6] for self-management, self-education and self-service for residents in Mainland China.^[7]

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]
