The collection includes all national parks and most national monuments, as well as several other types of protected areas of the United States. As of October 2018, there are 418 units of the National Park System. However, this number is somewhat misleading.

    This partial list of city nicknames in the United States compiles the aliases, sobriquets and slogans that cities are known by , officially and unofficially, to municipal governments, local people, outsiders or their tourism boards or chambers of commerce.
