What is an Unincorporated Community?

You might be wondering what an "unincorporated community" is. It's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or a village does. Instead, it's usually part of a larger county. For example, Blairsville is part of Clermont County, Ohio.

This means that services like police, fire, and road maintenance are usually handled by the county government, not by a separate town government. Many small communities across the United States are unincorporated.
