I think there are, in Texas of course. Cochise County, Arizona is very-nearly square AND is the ONLY county that borders another country.

Suffolk County Massachusetts is the one you are looking for. Hudson County NJ and Suffolk Mass. Those are the winners.

You must be thinking of Nassau County which is extremely densely populated. They are both on Long Island but Suffolk is out in the boonies compared to Nassau.

It should be Hudson, NJ and Suffolk, NY. There is no Hudson County in NY and there is no Suffolk County in NJ.

Did you mean the county in the state of Hawaii instead? Thanks
