The United States has 14 territories, which include five organized territories with varying degrees of self-government and nine unorganized territories that are under federal jurisdiction. The organized territories are American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
In 33 of the 50 U.S. states, the state capital is not the state's most populous city. Only two of the state capitals — Trenton, New Jersey, and Carson City, Nevada — border another state, while Juneau, Alaska, shares a border with the Canadian province of British Columbia.[a] The dates listed in the following table indicate the year in which the city started to continuously serve as the state's sole capital. Most states have changed their capital city at least once—see Historical state capitals for details.
This data shows a list of 331 towns or cities in the United States with at least 100,000 people living there, as of July 1, 2021.
