Jiangbei dialect is basically spoken by people in the west of Jintan, which is why Wu dialect is still only spoken in Xiyang and Dengguan.

Jiangbei dialect is basically spoken in the west of Jintan because of population migration, but Xiyang and Deng Guan still speak Wu dialect because they are people who used to live there.

Jintan District of Changzhou belonged to Wuyu District before 1860 Taiping Army massacre. After the massacre, a large number of immigrants from northern Jiangsu flowed into Jintan, so now the downtown area of Jintan is dominated by northern Jiangsu dialect, and only the eastern part of Jintan east of Licao River in Tenzin is the Wu dialect area. To the west of Jintan is the Jianghuai Mandarin area with immigrants from northern Jiangsu as the main body. As for Xiyang and Deng Guan, they still speak Wu dialect, because the people in these two places belong to the indigenous people of Jintan.
