Comma with City/State in a Series
Hello,
Would you use a comma in between two words in a series if the series consists of a city and state? For example, is the comma placement correct in this sentence or would you not need a comma in between "York" and "and"?
"They mentioned how Rochester, New York, and Chesterton, Indiana, successfully underwent a comprehensive overhaul."
