Wild that there hasn’t been some sort of standardization yet.

Current:

- http://albanycountywy.gov

- http://albanyga.gov

- http://albanyla.gov

- http://albanyny.gov

- http://albanyoregon.gov

Proposed:

{name}.{county|city|parish…}.{2 letter state abbreviation}.gov

- albany.county.wy.gov

- albany.city.ga.gov

- albany.city.ny.gov

- albany.city.or.gov

Then can easily distinguish between local, regional, state, and federal resources.

Local resource:

- parksandrec.albany.city.ga.gov

Regional resource:

- cad.albany.county.wy.gov

State resource:

- senate.ny.gov

Federal resource:

- fbi.gov

- nsa.gov

As a citizen, would make it very easy to find what you are looking for. Plus the added benefit of trust with .gov. Reduces the risk of our vulnerable citizens (elderly) getting phished.
