With the proliferation of categories for unincorporated communities, census-designated places, cities, towns/townships, and villages (and in NC military bases), I've thought about doing something similar to organize all these populated places.
It seems rather silly to me. But putting the towns, cities, and villages in separate categories also seems a bit overdone for my taste.
For the "Towns and citis of" categories, I propose "Cities and towns in" as a replacement phrase.
