I have a table with all U.S. zip codes. each row contains the city

  • 0

I have a table with all U.S. zip codes. each row contains the city and state name for the zip code. I’m trying to get a list of cities that show up in multiple states. This wouldn’t be a problem if there weren’t X amount of zip codes in the same city…

So basically, I just want to the city in a state to count as 1 instead of it counting the city/state 7 times because there are 2+ zip codes in that city/state…

I’m not really sure how to do this. I know I need to use count but how do I tell the mysql to only count a given city/state combo as 1?

    SELECT City, Count(City) As theCount
FROM (Select City, State From tblCityStateZips Group By City, State) As C
GROUP By City
HAVING COUNT Count(City) > 1

    This would return all cities, with count, that were contained in more than one state.

    Greenville 39
    Greenwood 2
    GreenBriar 3
    etc.
