The Hukou system in China

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hukou

basically a system of governmental control based on the location where
a person was born

if that system was used in the USA - it might go like this - if you
were born in Florida but retired in Massachusetts - you could only
collect retirement benefits based on the income of an average worker
in Florida

thtas a highly hypothetical siutation - but you can see how certain
benefits can be tied to the place where you were born
