Template talk:Benton County, Washington

Confused

Please define "community" in a way that wouldn't include the Tri-Cities. Matt Yeager ♫ (Talk?) 07:42, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

The Tri-Cities are multiple communities and a region of the state that extend into Benton County. We don't list regions on these templates any more than we do bodies of water. Regardless of the idea that "When viewed as a whole (a common practice due to the fact that all four cities border either each other, or one of the area rivers), the Tri-Cities is the fourth largest city in the state of Washington, behind Seattle, Spokane, and Tacoma." the cities are not a single city, and therefore are not one municipality or one community. The only possible exception to this idea are certain census-designated places, which sometimes are multiple communities in practice; they're included here singly because they are treated as a single community by the United States Census Bureau, which in demographic matters is generally a definitive source for US community articles.
