Understanding Holiday Types

Holidays in the U.S. can vary significantly in their observance:

Federal Holidays: Federal Holiday: All federal government offices are closed nationwide, with most banks and post offices closed. Many businesses and schools may also be closed during this time.
State Holidays: Holidays observed by specific states, meaning state government offices and schools in that state might be closed. Their observance is not nationwide.
Local Observances: Some states observe this as a holiday, meaning that state government offices and schools in that state may be closed. However, it is not observed nationwide.
Observances: A special day widely recognized for remembrance, but usually not a day off from work or school. These are often cultural or awareness days.
Religious/Cultural Holidays: A holiday associated with a specific religious or cultural tradition. Businesses may or may not be closed, and individuals may choose to take the day off based on personal preference.
