Count: 0 — No official U.S. state capitals begin with the letter G. This entry addresses the keyword “US Capitals that start with G” and restricts results to official seats of state government. Interesting detail: several large and well-known U.S. cities begin with G (Greenville, Grand Rapids, Greensboro, Gainesville, Glendale), but none of them is a state capital and no current state capital name starts with G.

Understand why the specific criterion returns no results. State capitals were named for presidents, founders, local tribes, geographic features, or colonial figures, and they were chosen for central location or political compromise rather than to cover every letter of the alphabet. This naming and selection history produces a simple absence: no current state capital name begins with G. Consult authoritative sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, state government websites, and the National Governors Association for official lists and population figures.

Include Washington, D.C. and U.S. territorial capitals only as a separate category; none of those capitals begins with G either. If you want cities that start with G, look to lists of major U.S. cities or county seats rather than state capitals—those lists produce plentiful results such as Greensboro (NC) and Grand Rapids (MI). Refer to the A–Z master index of state capitals for a complete, alphabetized reference with population data.
