Abstract：This paper, through the author's on-the-spot investigations, attempts to demonstrate that Hong Kong differs from Wuhan in urban community service. In terms of its carrier, Hong Kong has a social stratification community structure while Wuhan a natural industry community structure; organizationally, Hong Kong is highly autonomous while Wuhan is rather administrative; with regard to the employees, Hong Kong is specialized in personnel while Wuhan socialized; as for the expenditure on the service, Hong Kong is financed mainly by the government and partly supported by public donations while Wuhan subsidized by community industries, with free services supported by charged services; regarding the types of service, Hong Kong lays much stress on spiritual indirect services while Wuhan on material direct services. Therefore, Wuhan's urban community service should become specialized and welfare-oriented.
