Yep, can't remember when I first saw it, but it works the same way for
other geographic areas, i.e. zip codes, counties, even countries...

Try this: search for a city in Google Maps (doesn't show in aerial
view), and the result is the city limits highlighted with a pink tint
band.  This result shows at multiple zoom levels.  Cool cartography, but
always remember to refer to local authoritative data for accurate info!

Tint bands are a great cartographic enhancement:
