Do a Global Search and Replace. Go to Search > Search and Replace Select under "Find Where:" "Lists - Location Short" Under "Find What:" enter " County," (make sure to use the beginning space and ending comma) Under "Replacement text:" leave blank
Under "How to find" check off "Anywhere in Field" Under "How to replace" check off "Replace only text found with replacement text" That will get rid of all the occurrences of the word "County" in your short location.
