Washington  DC belongs to no state.



  This city i'm talking about is only city in america that this situation happens. You can not get to this city with out going out of state to get to it. thats like saying  every new yorker would have to leave new york state to get to New york city, New york.

If you want to go to this city and your from the same state as this city you would have to leave your state to get to this city and then you would have to leave your state to get back home again..

no east st. louis Il. and St. louis mo. are 2 diff cities. same for kansas city mo and kansas city kansas


another example to help you understand. say this state has 50 citys. 49 lay in state boundries. 1 city  is in another state. It only happens 1 time. ( at least only know of 1.)



 This city isn't half one state half in other . Entire city is within anothers states boundries.

Carter lake IA.

It is in the middle of Omaha Ne. The missouri river flooded. most  cities cut off by rivers new path joined Ne. but not  Carter. Because you can't sell beer or cars on sunday in NE.  thats why carter lake stayed a Ia. city to sell beer and cars on sunday.
