These are most of the Illinois lists: List of cities in Illinois#See also. The lists are separated by their manner of incorporation as a city, village, town, unincorporated, etc. If you check GNIS, that site will list which "entity" the place should be under. Hope this explains how the lists are sorted out. --Funandtrvl (talk) 01:59, 31 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
