THE US DOMAIN All state and local governments (city, county, township, parish, village), K-12 districts and schools, community colleges,
technical schools, museums, libraries, organizations, businesses, and individuals can register under .us. The structure of the
US Domain is a hierarchy based on localities (e.g., name.los-angeles.ca.us). This structure provides for more unique names,
more easily located names, and national identification. The US Domain is the sixth largest domain after .com, .net, .edu,
.jp (Japan) and .uk (United Kingdom) [Internet Software Consortium Survey, January 2000].

The US Domain Registry is administered by VeriSign Global Registry Services.
