32 more are further out than this frame — the Speedway, the lake, the mountains — and live in the day trips. Neighbourhood names sit where that neighbourhood's places average out — those are not boundaries, because the guide holds none.

The dashed line is the city limit, from the US Census Bureau's TIGER/Line boundary — generalised for drawing, by at most 44m, which is under one pixel at this size. Its 27 separate pieces are Charlotte annexing around Matthews, Mint Hill, Pineville and Huntersville rather than through them.
