-That's a good point and would certainly depend on where you are coming from. And, technically, there are probably less than 10 caches is what is considered "North City." Coming through the City I'd be sure and pick up the new cache on Hebert Street and the ones along the bike trail on the river, but wouldn't send a traveler on 270 that far when there are plenty of others so close.
And to make things even more divided, people who live in a city in the county usually point that out LOL.
Remember when all the media got together and agreed to the boundaries of all the neighborhoods, parishes, cities, towns, suburbs... I've tried googling that and I'm only coming up with hits for "the city ..."

- Like I said, "I still would consider No. city to be in No. county onlybecause it's North of here". Meaning, I know there's a difference, but it's still North of me. If I said, "let's go caching in No. county today, that wouldn't exclude any nearby cache in the city.----- Original Message ----- From: "Timothy Hunt" <geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, November 04, 2007 2:14 PM Subject: [GeoStL] Re: North county-North City is NOT in North county, because the City is not in the county at all.Timothy On 11/4/07, GC-RGS <gc-rgs@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:That's a good question. Jon has a good point about using the Countyboundaries. Being from South or West county, I've always had an imaginary east/west line to determine No. county, somewhere along Page. Looking at a map, I'd consider an e/w line drawn through Creve Coeur Park would be the southern line. Airport, NW Plaza, etc I consider No. county. Same with theCity proper; I still would consider No. city to be in No. county only because it's North of here.

Most ofNorth County's boundary is the boundary of St. Louis County. This isdefinitely predefined. It's the southern boundary of North County that mightbe a question. Unfortunately I'm learning that the boundaries I grew upunderstanding are flat-out wrong ( i.e. anything inside of 270 is "The City" and you don't want to be there.) but I'd say hwy 70 is a good start for asouthern boundary. I'm not sure how you'd want to treat the airport and surrounding areas. On 11/4/07, Tom <lobocs@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > What would you consider to be the boundaries for "North County"?
