In some cases, these "hamlets" may be separate legal entities, even though
surrounded by the city. For example, Davidson County, Tennessee, and the
city of Nashville merged in 1963 into a shared Metropolitan government.
However, six smaller municipalities within the county chose to keep partial
autonomy. Growth of Nashville means that only road signs show that you have
crossed over into these municipalities, but they maintain their own police
forces.

I'm in favor of a bulk edit for US hamlets within city boundaries to be
retagged as place=neighbourhood
