From the following columns of data, any ideas for a formula that returns the number of cities in each of the six states? i.e., Iowa has 3 cities listed

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Perhaps

=COUNTIF(A:A,"Iowa")
=COUNTIF(A:A,"Illinois")
etc

Hope that helps..
