I recall reading somewhere that the city of Baoshan, China, was the last large settlement(over 100k people) on the mainland to fall to CCP forces and remain in KMT hands. Is this true? When did it fall?

I've heard some people say that Nevada was rushed into the Union in the 1860s due to the civil war and it wasn't really up to the general standards yet, and it may have remained a territory until the 1950s had that not happened. Is this true?
