History

diamong [38]3 years ago

Answer:

A. Counties, municipalities, townships, school districts, and special

districts

Explanation:

Counties are the largest units of local  government, numbering about 8,000 nationwide. They provide many of the same services  provided by cities.

Municipalities include cities, villages, and boroughs and they number about 19,000  in the United States. Often called city government, municipalities provide services such as  police and fire protection, parks and recreation, streets and sewers, among others.

Most of the more than 15,000 school districts in the U.S. operate independently of  city government.

The 33,000 special districts nationwide are organized to provide one or more  services such as water and sanitation, mosquito control, transportation, parks and  recreation, flood control, etc. Special districts have the authority to levy taxes and to spend  public money.

Hope this helps!

Finger [1]

To live in Quebec is to become accustomed to daily reminders that French in the Canadian province is the most regulated language in the world. Try, as I did recently, to shop at Anthropologie online and you’ll come up empty-handed.
