Note that (1) USA is rather unusual in this fragmentation (2) local rules are overriding rules of upper administrative level, right? so one would need to record 597 + 77 + 2 sets of rules (in the worst case) (3) How you got this 46,000 number? It looks like result of multiplying 597 and 77. Are you sure that each of 597 towns is partially located in each of 77 counties?
