See below for what I mean by > non-independent cities. Are you sure about Arlington County? It has ALWAYS been Arlington County in my memory (back to the late 50s). Maybe you have confused the fact that the independent cities can ANNEX portions of adjacent counties. This can be a PITA for a county when it's nifty new tax paying shopping center becomes part of an adjacent city. But since you seem to have facts at hand, what is the EXACT status of Falls Church? It seems to have taken land from both Fairfax and Arlington Counties. BTW: Arlington County was formed when Congress decided to return the VA portion of DC back to VA.
