Huyi District (Chinese: 鄠邑区; pinyin: Hùyì Qū), formerly known as Hu County or Huxian (simplified Chinese: 户县; traditional Chinese: 戶縣, written as 鄠縣/鄠县 before 1964, pinyin: Hù Xiàn (same for both ways of writing)), is one of 11 urban districts of the prefecture-level city of Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, Northwest China. The district was approved to establish from the former Hu County (户县) by the Chinese State Council on November 24, 2016.[2] As of 2018, its population was 558,600.[3] The district borders the prefecture-level cities of Xianyang to the north and Ankang to the south and Chang'an District to the east.
It has an area of 1,255 km2 (485 sq mi), and contains 11 towns and five townships.[citation needed] Towards its south the district is bordered by the Qin Mountains and to the north by the Weihe River. Thirty-six rivers run through the area, making the land very fertile. Fifty-five acres of land are arable and 52.4 acres of land are covered by forests. The region has an abundance of minerals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, limestone and marble.[citation needed]
In 2010 GDP reached 100 billion Yuan (about US$2000 per capita).[citation needed]
