Four places straddle county lines and their table figures are citywide, not Kane-only shares.
\nBartlett and Hoffman Estates sit mostly in Cook and DuPage counties, with only a slice of each
\nreaching into Kane. Barrington Hills spans Cook, Lake, McHenry and Kane counties, and Aurora
\nitself extends into DuPage, Kendall and Will counties — its 180,542 residents are not all
\nKane County residents. Township is left blank above where a place incorporates across more than
\none township or the township line runs through it.<\/p>\n
