We have a few of these in MS:

MS 463 is entirely in Madison County
MS 468 and 471 are only in Rankin County
MS 467 runs through Hinds County from Edwards to Raymond
MS 67 runs from Biloxi to US 49 at Saucier, all in Harrison County
MS 603 & 604 run only through Hancock County

Florida has a lot. Off the top of my head: 3, 5A, 423, 424, 437, 438, 441, 482, 539, 540, 542, 544, 548, 551, 552, 553...

Most of Wyoming's are intra-county

Quite a lot of these in Northern California, especially in the Bay Area.

I'm sure they're very common if you really look into a lot of them. Off the top of my head I know there's PA 946 and 512 in Northampton County, PA, which is relatively small at 377 sq miles. There's also PA 222 in Allentown (Lehigh County) which was to be a part of US 222 that got denied, so there are probably a lot of intra-county state routes in multiple counties that exist for the same or at least similar reason, for example NJ 495

Offhand I can think of a few Texas examples... severely incomplete list follows:

  • SH 10 and SH 26 in Tarrant Co.
  • SH 57 in Smith Co.
  • SH 151 and SH 218 in Bexar Co.
  • SH 93 in Bowie Co.
  • SH 40 in Brazos Co.
  • Toll SH 255 in Webb Co.
Not sure whether most of these are in the more urban areas or if those are just the examples that came to my mind more readily. There are a few in relatively less populated areas, i.e., SH 51 in Hansford Co., but as expected many seem to connect two county seats.

Oh, of course, can't forget SH 165 in Travis Co. :)

Highway 30 is the only one I can think of off hand for Wisconsin. Minnesota has quite a few in the Cities area from what I can recall.

I left off a few still-unsigned routes, but I think I got all the signed highways.

Most of the business loops and spurs in the state are single-county highways as well. The Michigan segment of US 8 exists in only one county, and the southern segment of US 141 is also a single-county affair.

Similarly, you'll find a lot of Nevada state routes that do not cross county lines. Given the large size of many Nevada counties (larger than some whole New England states) this isn't overly surprising. It would take some time to compile a list...might be easier to list routes that *do* cross county lines...

Every state highway in Hawaii is one-county.

Only a few of Alaska's dozen numbered state highways (1-11, and 98), leaving aside hundreds of routes with nothing more than unsigned inventory numbers: 

9 (Kenai Peninsula borough)

98 (Skagway borough)

5 (Southeast Fairbanks census area within the Unorganized Borough, which is the large part of Alaska not yet assigned to any county-level local government)

10 (Valdez-Cordova census area within the Unorganized Borough).

4 is entirely within the Unorganized Borough, but starts in the Valdez-Cordova census area and ends in the Southeast Fairbanks census area.

Louisiana has literally too many for me to think of and post.

I-97.

Since the thread is about State Highways, I'll also include IN-520 and Iowa Highways 100, unsigned 461, 922, 965, and all of the other little spurs that were decommissioned in 2003.

Maryland has tons and tons of them.  I'm pretty sure I can come up with at least fifteen or twenty in Montgomery County alone.

Oklahoma has quite a few of them. Most of the lettered highways are short spurs to a town just off the main route, so those will tend to be in one county. Even the non-suffixed routes will sometimes be all in one county, though. Examples are OK 130 (McClain), OK 135 (unsigned, Tulsa), OK 145 (Garvin), OK 153 (Love), OK 209 (Choctaw, I think). There are even some lower numbered ones–OK 24 (McClain, although a few miles of the southbound/eastbound lane are in Garvin), OK 42 (Washita), OK 96 (Love).

I can think of a zillion ones off the top of my head.  A couple notable ones:
-NY 421 is entirely in St. Lawrence county, but to reach it by car, you have to drive through Franklin county
-NY 272 is entirely in Monroe county northbound and Orleans county southbound.  It's possible to clinch this road without entering one of the counties it travels through.

We have a few of these on Long Island, NY also: NY State Routes 110, 111 and 112 and 114 are entirely in Suffolk County. Nassau County has 106, 107, 101, and probably some more that I'm forgetting. I guess the geography of Long Island plays a large role here. Many North/South routes are in one county because the counties cover from the North Shore to the South Shore.

Mass. Route 4 in Middlesex County.

This does not matter much in New England though, as many counties have no government--MA has 14 counties and 8 of them have no government--and there are ZERO county routes in the 6 states.
