[Colonâ„¢]

Depends on the definition: you may use the population that lives within the formal borders of a municipality, or you may use the numbers of the wider metropolitan area.

I know that. But the thread opened by talking about Los Angeles County.

Los Angeles is one city in a huge county. (Like Chicago in Cook county)

NYC (by far still number one in the US baby!) is one city, five counties.

I wonder which makes more sense.

Whats your NASCAR Track name?

California Motor Speedway, in Fontana.

When the city expands to fill the county, the county government should dissolve.

There are no county governments in the Five Boroughs., thought each county has kept its own District Attorney.

Besides, NYC did not "fill out", but instead New York City (then NY County and Richmond County) joined with the City of Brooklyn (Kings county) and all the townships and small cities in Queens County to form the modern NYC. Then the Bronx became its own county after NYC was one.

Nassau was invited to join NYC but opted out.

Plus Sears Point, which, IIRC, is in Pomona?

[JohnT]

No, that's north of San Francisco, in Sonoma if I recall.

There are a number of other cities in LA county though they're basically just bedroom communities economicaly dependent upon LA. They just keep themselves seperate because they want to maintain control of the schools and so they can make sure their tax money stays local instead of being dumped into things like the Belmont learning center.

Now there was an absolute boondoggle caused by the cities black council members. They so wanted a huge new high school and community college for their run down neighborhood that they ignored all the health and safety rules by building it on top of one of the last large undeveloped lots in that part of the city... Which just happened to be an old oil field/processing facility which was contaminated with V.O.C.s, P.A.Hs, vinyl clouride, and a host of other nasty cancer causing substances. They ended up dumping $350-$400 million into this white elephant when they originally demanded it be built on a brown field site because it would save $10 million. All the other new learning centers only cost around $50 million.
