Called 保甲制度, 保甲法 or simply 保甲, this entry would better be placed under 保甲. The pinyin is baojia, not Bao-Jia. In seems by the Republican era ten households make one jia and ten jia one bao, as most dictionaries mention, but it hasn't always been so.

Baojia 保甲 was a system of communal self-defense created during the Song period 宋 (960-1279) and revived during the Republican era (1912-1949). It was a specialization of the lijia system 里甲 used for local self-administration.

The baojia system (Chinese: 保甲; pinyin: bǎojiǎ; Wade–Giles: pao-chia) was an invention of Wang Anshi of the Song dynasty, who created this community-based system of law enforcement and civil control that was included in his large reform of Chinese government ("the New Policies") from 1069–1076.
(…)
The structure of the baojia system changed over time. In Wang Anshi's original system, its basic unit was the bao (watch), which consisted of ten families. However, during the Ming dynasty, this ten family unit was instead labeled a jia (tithing), and ten jia (or one hundred families) made a bao. Each jia possessed a placard that rotated among the families. The family holding it at a given time was the jiazhang, or tithing captain. Similarly, the captain of the bao was the baozhang.

There was a great deal of regional variation in the system. In some areas, jia had as few as four families or as many as thirteen. Some Jiangnan counties added an intermediary unit called the dang (compact). This unit consisted of thirty families and had a corresponding dangzhang.
