Then they would be in some other County. Like all States that have Counties, every square inch of Texas has to be in exactly one County - no more and no fewer.

===================

"in exactly one county" --- this may be true of Texas, but many cities are in no county at all (Baltimore, St. Louis, Carson City NV, and many cities in Virginia, among others). Many other cities are in more than one county (Columbia SC and Huntington WV just being two). In Connecticut, counties exist geographically but have no government of their own. I don't think there are any states that have land parcels that are considered to be in more than one county at the same time.
