How to Find a County by City

If you are planning to relocate, it's important to find out what county you will be living in, now that the city has been decided upon. Counties often have different ordinances, rules and court systems that need to be understood. By looking up the county in which a city is located, you will ensure you are prepared and informed when you arrive at your new home.
