I add "County" only when I don't know the city. , King county, Washington, United States Seattle, King, Washington, United States.
Although I can understand how confusing it might be if the city and county are the same. Plus I'm not a fan of abbreviations so I spell "county" out. There might be those who aren't sure what "Co." means. It's a common abbreviation for "company".... The WA abbreviation for Washington state is also the abbreviation for Western Australia and there's a town there with the same name as where I live in Washington!
