What is an Unincorporated Community?
An unincorporated community is a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government. Unlike a city or a village, it doesn't have its own mayor or town council. Instead, it's usually governed by the larger county or a nearby town.
People in unincorporated communities still have neighbors and a sense of community. They often share services with the surrounding areas.
