I've seen a number of ways where tiger:county was changed to is_in, 
leading to values like is_in=Orange, FL for Orange County, Florida. This 
seems less than ideal and sometimes misleading: does is_in=Des Moines, 
IA mean that it's in the city of Des Moines or in Des Moines County, 
which is in the far corner of the state? Is there any reason not to 
change these to is_in:county?
