Dennis is an unincorporated census-designated place rather than a city; it has no independent municipal government but is tracked separately by the Census Bureau. Several of the smaller entries — Hillside MH Park and Lawndale Estates MH Park — are mobile-home communities rather than traditional townsites, and a handful of the rural names (Brownstone, Fern, Garvin, Grove, Laneville, Orchard Park, Penfield, Stover, Strauss, Winway) are former post-office stops or rural neighborhoods that never incorporated.<\/p>\n
