The first impression left by Xiyuan Community to the media interview group is that the community environment is clean and tidy and the infrastructure is perfect. Lu Longjun, secretary of the Party branch of Xiyuan Community, said: "This community is large in scale. After the relocated people move in, how to help residents develop good living habits and build a civilized community has become the first problem before us." Xiyuan Community has firmly grasped the construction of new folk customs, set up a community party branch to give play to the leading role of party building, and set up five community volunteer service teams, namely, picketing folk customs, caring for elderly children, wedding etiquette, creating civilized communities and building safe communities, to help households and constantly promote the construction of civilized communities.

When the media delegation visited, Jong Li Nan, chairman of Xiyuan Community Women’s Federation, and a community volunteer were cleaning up for Lu Hongcai’s family. Lu Hongcai sat in a wheelchair and pointed to the volunteers and said excitedly, "This year, big and small things have helped me too much." Li Zhongnan said in an interview: "The old couple have been sick for a long time. One is in a wheelchair, the other has been ill in bed, and their son has been working outside the home all the year round, so he can only come back once during the Spring Festival. The elderly have long relied on community volunteer service teams for their daily life. Help them clean up and chat with them, and their lives will be warmer. "
