Thanks, that’s an interesting perspective. Cities developing somewhat independently of state / county lines. Here in the UK it seems our counties are so much smaller and irregular that it seems like a phrase that’s never found much use

Interesting, thanks

TriState area

I only ever hear this phrase in an American context. Are your states more likely to meet with 3 at a point or something? I never hear “quadstate” or “bistate” area?
