Every count is a named place on OpenStreetMap, the public map anyone can edit. OpenStreetMap does not say which town a point is in, so each place is counted in the town whose center it is nearest for that town's size. A spot right on a border can show up under the neighbor.

How are places counted in a town?
Every count is a named place on OpenStreetMap, the public map anyone can edit. OpenStreetMap does not say which town a point is in, so each place is counted in the town whose center it is nearest for that town's size. A spot right on a border can show up under the neighbor.
