The Reality Reports

What Counties Represent In The United States: Counties are one of the oldest forms of local government in the United States. They help manage courts, law enforcement, public records, roads, and local elections. While their duties vary by state, counties exist to bring government closer to the people they serve. The number of counties in each state reflects history, geography, population, and political needs. No two states followed the same path when drawing their county lines.
