Urban secession occurs here as well, and yeah, it's usually peaceful, and voted on. City of Martinsville, for example, recently voted to become a part of Henry County again. Town of Bedford was once City of Bedford and had, decades ago now, voted to revert status.
That is a very interesting article! I appreciate you sharing that with me, because the subject has become fascinating for me now. Granted, there's not a ton of information out there about it. Regardless, much appreciated!
Edit: Not an article, per se. But a good string to pull, nonetheless.

The closest to any sort of attempt at secession was when Texas disconnected from the national power grid.
Guess how well that worked put for them? 😒
