These places include 234 incorporated places (232 cities, 1 municipality, and 1 town), 4 city-county consolidations with the county name included as part of the place name (Athens-Clarke County, GA; Augusta-Richmond County, GA; Lexington-Fayette, KY; and Nashville-Davidson, TN), and 7 census designated places (CDPs). CDPs are delineated for the decennial census and comprise densely settled concentrations of population which are identifiable by name, but which are not legally incorporated places. One of these CDPs is Arlington CDP, VA, which is coextensive with Arlington County. In Puerto Rico, there are 4 places with 100,000 or more population, all of which are CDPs identified as zonas urbanas. There are no incorporated places in Hawaii or Puerto Rico.
