Daftar julukan kota di Amerika Serikat

artikel daftar Wikimedia

Daftar julukan kota di Amerika Serikat ini mengandung samaran, julukan, dan slogan yang disematkan kepada beberapa kota di Amerika Serikat (resmi dan tidak resmi) oleh pemerintah kota, masyarakat setempat, orang asing, badan pariwisata, atau kamar dagang. Julukan kota berperan sebagai perintis identitas lokal, membantu orang asing mengenali masyarakat setempat, atau mengajak orang berkunjung karena julukannya khas; mengangkat martabat daerah; dan mempersatukan masyarakat.[1] Julukan dan slogan yang berubah menjadi "ideologi atau mitos" baru[2] juga diyakini memiliki potensi ekonomi.[1] Potensi ekonominya sulit diukur,[1] tetapi ada beberapa kota yang memakai slogan baru untuk memasarkan/mencitrakan diri dan memanfaatkan potensi ekonomi tersebut.[2]

Reno, Nevada, dengan bangga memamerkan julukannya, "The Biggest Little City in the World", di jalan raya pusat kota.

Pada tahun 2005, lembaga konsultan Tagline Guru melakukan survei kecil yang melibatkan para pekerja profesional di bidang pencitraan, pemasaran, dan periklanan untuk mengetahui slogan dan julukan kota "terbaik" di Amerika Serikat. Responden diminta mengevaluasi sekitar 800 julukan dan 400 slogan dan mempertimbangkan sejumlah kriteria. Kriterianya adalah: julukan atau slogan mencerminkan "ciri khas, kesamaan, gaya, dan kepribadian" kota, "memiliki kesan cerdas, menyenangkan, dan mudah diingat," unik dan asli, dan "mengajak Anda untuk berkunjung, pindah ke sana, atau mengenal lebih lanjut."[3]

Julukan terpopuler dalam survei tersebut adalah "The Big Apple" (New York City), kemudian "Sin City" (Las Vegas), "The Big Easy" (New Orleans), "Motor City" (Detroit), dan "The Windy City" (Chicago). Selain Sin City, Las Vegas memiliki slogan populer lain, yaitu "What Happens Here, Stays Here." Slogan peringkat kedua sampai kelima adalah "So Very Virginia" (Charlottesville, Virginia), "Always Turned On" (Atlantic City, New Jersey), "Cleveland Rocks!" (Cleveland, Ohio), dan "The Sweetest Place on Earth" (Hershey, Pennsylvania).[3]

Beberapa julukan tidak resmi bersifat positif dan negatif. Julukan tidak resmi di bawah ini populer dan sudah lama digunakan.
