Not every location in the USA is a "city". In Ohio, when I was growing up,
any populated place with less than 5000 inhabitants was a Village. After
5000 you could become a City.  Also, in states that use the township system
a specific location could be Deerfield (Twp), Mason (village or city),
Warren (County), Ohio (State or territory), USA.  Of course there are also
Indian Reservations which can have interesting location names. And the
pre-USA locations have been discussed several times on the list.
