Line 32:
** [[Massachusetts]]: [[Norfolk County, Massachusetts|Norfolk County]] is not fully contiguous; the towns of [[Brookline, Massachusetts|Brookline]] and [[Cohasset, Massachusetts|Cohasset]] are part of Norfolk County, but are surrounded on all sides by other counties.
** [[California]]: The [[San Francisco, California|City and County of San Francisco]] has an exclave on [[Alameda Island]], across [[San Francisco Bay]] and adjoining [[Alameda County, California|Alameda County]]. The exclave came into being as land on the border between the two counties was reclaimed from the Bay to build the [[Naval Air Station Alameda]], now decommissioned. This small piece of open space cannot be reached from San Francisco (except by boat) without passing through [[Oakland, California|Oakland]] and [[Alameda, California|Alameda]].
** [[Michigan]]: The "[[Lost Peninsula]]" in [[Monroe County, Michigan]], can only be reached via [[Toledo, Ohio]]. It is otherwise surrounded by [[Maumee Bay]] in [[Lake Erie]]. ([http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=monroe,+mi&ll=41.736223,-83.456655&spn=0.009111,0.02429 Map])
