Independent Cities

In addition to its counties, Virginia has 40 independent cities. These cities are not part of any county, and their area and populations are not counted in the area or population of the counties that surround them. Since each city is a single entity, there is no separate county seat. Note that other states (Maryland, Missouri, Nevada) have independent cities, however, Virginia is the only state with multiple independent cites. Each of the other states has only one (Baltimore, St. Louis, Carson City, respectively). In addition, one of the interesting aspects of several of Virginia's independent cities is that they do serve as the county seat of the county that surrounds them, even though they are not actually located within the county. A list of the independent cities of Virgina is included below.
