Say "County or County-Equivalents." "Locality" could mean anything: cities, CDPs, school districts, etc.

I think County or County-Equivalents sounds good. That's what I was going for here. I did not mean to compare counties and cities (within counties). In Virginia - cities are independent, and are legally almost identical to counties. Likewise Baltimore and St. Louis are independent cities, Philadelphia is both a city and a county with the same borders, Alaska has three different types of county-equivalents, and New York County (Manhattan) is far more densely populated than the whole of New York City when you include all the boroughs.
