=== Mailing Address for City field in Waze ===
'''NOTE:''' Mailing addresses alone are not a determining factor for filling in the City field; city limits are. For example, everyone who lives in Leon County has a "Tallahassee, FL" mailing address, but not everyone in Leon County lives within the incorporated city limits of Tallahassee.  Most unincorporated county areas should have the City field checked as "None", unless they meet one of the following exceptions.
