Municipalities listed below have been researched for municipal flags, mainly by searching their websites. Commonly U.S. cities use the city seal on a plain field as the city flag, so we have included information about the city seal where no other flag is known.

Calexico

The website at www.calexicochamber.ca.gov shows the Calexico logo - a cartoon-like drawing of the U.S. and Mexican Border Control posts, with the respective national flags of each country clearly visible. In the upper left corner of the illustration is a pale yellow sun fimbriated black, with stylized black rays in a pale blue sky (all the colors in this logo are pale pastels). There is a white cloud also fimbriated black; it is partially obscured by the dome of the U.S. Border Patrol post, which is pastel yellow and green also edged in black, and this cloud itself partially obscures the lower left portion of the sun. The roof of the Mexican Border Post is terra cotta in color, and the main structures of both post are white with black trim. The U.S. post has one window quartered green and yellow, while the Mexican post has three windows, divided horizontally lilac and white with a black Union Jack-type pattern in the lilac (upper) portion of each window.
