The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

Map-Quest aside, i'm surprised also at the idea of any of Northfield being in Dakota County. But it appears not to have been put in the article by hand, so it is unlikely to be a clerical error. I would propose this text:

  • Northfield (At least 90% of the town is in Rice County, but apparently for census purposes a portion of Dakota County's population is described as part of Northfield.)

[edit] Lakes

  • I've added a lakes section with all of the lakes that are within (or partially within) a discernible township. There are many more lakes in the county, but I'm not sure how to list them. They are all in the incorporated area of the county i.e. in the northern part which is considered (I think) to be part of the Metro area. The only thing I can think to do is something like the following:
  • Marion Lake: about a mile northwest of Lakeville
  • Any suggestions in this matter would be appreciated.--Hraefen 18:52, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
