改卫为州 From Wei to Zhou
清雍正三年(1725)，天津开始建立地方政府，改卫为州，天津建立地方政府，明中期就有所酝酿。据《明孝宗实录》载：弘治五年(1492)，鸿胪寺右少卿李链应诏上书：“天津至静海百余里，北至通州二百余里，中间俱无司衙门，事多废弛。乞开设一州于天津城内。”但这一建议未被朝廷批准。200多年后，清朝廷于雍正三年(1725)才决定改卫为州。
天津改州后，辖境未作调整，仍只管辖天津城厢及原属的屯堡。因此，长芦盐政向皇帝奏称，“天津所管屯庄，俱在各州各县，远有三四百里不等，津城附近反无统属，西门、南门以外即为静海县地方；北门、东门以外，仅隔一河又系武清地方。”要求“皇上下敕直隶督臣详加妥议，将天津州改为直隶州，分武清、静海、青县三邑属之”。至雍正八年(1730)，将原天津卫散在各州县的屯堡划给附近州、县，又从武清县划出143个村庄，从静海县和沧州划出129个村庄，归属天津州管辖。
In 1725, Tianjin began to establish local government Zhou, which had been thought back in Ming Dynasty,when in 1492 aproposal to establish Zhou in Tianjin was made but not approved by the central government. 200 years later,Qing government decided to change Wei to Zhou. After that,the area of Tianjin remained the same. So the officials in ChangLu asked the empire to change Tianjin to Zhou. In1730, 143 villages in WuQing and 129 villages in JingHai and CangZhou were added to the administrative district of Tianjin.

由州升府 From Zhou to Fu
天津改卫为州6年后，行政管辖权再次变革。1731年，天津升州为府，另设天津县，并分设州、府、县衙门，结束了政出多门的状态。由于天津北方经济中心城市的地位逐渐形成，政事、政务日渐增多，朝廷为适应这一情况，在天津因事设衙、置官，或是将驻其他地区的衙署移驻天津，在方圆9平方里的天津城内或城厢附近建立了许多衙署，天津府衙设在城内北门里大仪门内。府的职权是：管理租税、裁判、治安、教育等事务和对所属州、县进行监督。天津县衙门设在城内水月庵，主官为知县，主要职权为裁判、租税征收、治安监狱、教育、赈恤、河务和对村镇的监督等。
6 years after central government changed Tianjin Wei to Zhou, administration jurisdiction experienced reform once again. In 1731, Tianjin was promoted from Zhou to Fu and Tianjin Xian was established. Besides, the establishment of Zhou, Fu and Xian administrative office ended the condition that too many administrative offices existed together. As business center of north China, tianjin needed more and more administrative institutions. Tianjin Fu yamun was locatedin Dayimen and Xian Yamun shuiyuean. They were responsible for different branches of administrative.
