Coming from Baltimore, Maryland, I have this in a LOT of my entries.  I ha found that using this format suites my needs in properly identifying that it is an independent city, but also making it easy to differentiate it from being an actual place name:

/Baltimore, (Independent City), Maryland, USA/

This puts the term "Independent City" in place of the county, but the parentheses indicate that it is not the actual name of the county.  This also lets people know that you didn't leave the county field blank.

Hope this helps!

The state of Virginia has a good number of 'Independent Cities'.  Would someone please tell me how to properly record them?
Thanks
