Talk:Consolidated city-county

Metropolitan counties in England

Should these be included? I mean in none of these counties a city government is merged with a county government. The City of Manchester has a government separate from Greater Manchester.

Also South Korea and Japan don't have counties.2602:306:CC42:8340:34E0:84D:35C5:A672 (talk) 22:51, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Questionable inclusions

The following should be moved from Consolidated city–county#Consolidated since their creation to Consolidated city–county#Merged:

• The City of New Orleans and Orleans Parish, Louisiana remain separate political and legal entities, much like the City of Philadelphia and Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.

The following should be moved from Consolidated city–county#Consolidated since their creation to Consolidated city–county#Other:

• The City and County of Honolulu, Hawaii is a city in name only. The City and County of Honolulu has a county government with municipal functions, but it has never been an incorporated municipality, nor is it recognized as such by the United States Census Bureau.
• Los Alamos County, New Mexico has a county government with municipal functions, but it has never been an incorporated municipality, nor is it recognized as such by the United States Census Bureau.

The following could be included in Consolidated city–county#Other:

• The Municipality of Skagway Borough, Alaska has a borough government with municipal functions, but it is no longer an incorporated municipality.
• The City and Borough of Wrangell, Alaska has a borough government with municipal functions, but it is no longer an incorporated municipality.

Germany has independent cities, not consolidated city-counties

Nearly every larger city in Germany is a consolidated city-county, like Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Munich or Dresden

In the context of the definitions of this article, this is clearly incorrect. There are no nominal counties that would remain for Frankfurt, Stuttgart, etc. This is even reflected in the German name of these entities, which in most German states are called kreisfreie Städte, lit. “country-free cities.” —ThorstenNY (talk) 13:31, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
