I always abbreviate in my own notes wherever I can....just because  
they are my own and probably will only be seen by me. However, in my  
data entry into my genealogy program, I use the long form and only  
abbreviate USA. Such as .......Centerville, Alameda County,  
California, USA. That way, folks from other countries will have a  
clearer idea of what location I'm describing. I always add "County"  
where appropriate so that it is clear the location described is a  
county and not a city.......Sometimes it's hard to distinguish between  
them.
