Note: The Census Bureau defines a consolidated government as a unit of local government in which the city and county are merged. Several categories of consolidation exist: city-county consolidation that operate as cities (the first table above), consolidated cities (the second table above), and counties that maintain certain types of offices as part of another city or township government. One city-county consolidation operates as a county (Yakutat in Alaska).
