What is an Unincorporated Community?

An unincorporated community is a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government. It's not like a city or a village with its own mayor or town council. Instead, it's usually governed by the larger county or "town" it's located within. For City Point, this means the Jackson County government and the Town of City Point government handle things like roads and services.
