Local government in the United States is generally structured according to state laws and consists of two main tiers: counties and municipalities below them. Counties are divided into towns or townships in some states. Municipalities include cities, towns, villages, and boroughs, and vary in structure between states. Special districts also exist to provide specific services like fire protection or schools across municipal boundaries.
