The paper discusses the main reasons and history of the change to the Community system，and analyses the features of this system comparing with the Jie-Ju （the Street-Office and Residents Committee） system. The paper holds that during the development of 30 years，the Community system substituted the Jie-Ju system completely，and came to be a situation of many residential organizations in the community，these organizations began to build a mechanism of cooperative governance initially. But there are some shortcomings to overcome：Principal part of community governance lack diversities，leaders still use forced administrative means to manage，a few NGO’s is in communities，residents have a little opportunities and ways to participate in public activities and to fulfill their democratic rights.

In future，its autonomous trend should be developed more，and governmental dimensions should be limited.
