What is an Unincorporated Community?
An unincorporated community is a place where people live, but it is not officially a city or town. It does not have its own mayor or city council. Instead, the local services, like roads and police, are usually handled by the county government.
How is it Different from a City?
Cities and towns have their own local governments. They can make their own laws and collect taxes for local services. Unincorporated communities do not have these powers. They rely on the county for most of their needs.
Why are Some Places Unincorporated?
Many small communities start without a formal government. If they stay small, they might never become a city. Sometimes, people prefer to be unincorporated. This can mean fewer local taxes or less strict rules.
