It's an Iowa town that is completely separated from the rest of Iowa by a river - the only one of its kind, I think. :D
What about Sebula. You could say the same for that town since it is on an island in the mighty Mississip.

I always thought that Carter Lake should make that road connecting the Omaha airport and Omaha a toll road. Just because.

I looked it up - on the satellite image it sure looks like Sebula is connected to the land at the top with an isthmus. :)

The Ponca tribe recently put a casino in Carter Lake. For some stupid reason Omaha sued claiming they don't allow casinos in Nebraska and being that Carter Lake is surrounded by Nebraska that should count.
Not really much of a case when the land is owned by Native Americans and in Iowa

Yeah dumb for many reasons but especially because a simple look at the map shows that Carter Lake is not surrounded by Nebraska.
