I would say that a good 40% of the people who live on the other side don't know that, and maybe 80% don't realize that "Cape Cod" in the 19th century was considered by many to be anything inside the hook--up to Plymouth and beyond.
There is no such legal entity under the General Laws as "Cape Cod". The legal entity in question is the County of Barnstable.
