Last summer there was a big thread Differences with USA admin_level tagging <https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-us/2017-July/thread.html> that talked a lot about odd cases in the US. As one example, Kevin Kenny pointed out <https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-us/2017-July/017519.html> Geneva, NY <https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/176059#map=13/42.8582/-76.9476> which apparently has a portion in a second county. I haven't re-read the who thread, but I seem to remember others mentioning a number of other situations where administrative areas really can't be represented in a cleanly nested way.
