About Irishmans
Irishmans is not a city or town with its own local government. Instead, it is a small group of homes and businesses that are part of the larger Knott County. It's a quiet area where people live and work.
What is an Unincorporated Community?
An unincorporated community is a place that doesn't have its own separate city or town government. This means it doesn't have a mayor or a city council just for that specific area. Instead, the local government for the larger county handles services like roads, police, and fire protection for everyone, including those in unincorporated communities.
For example, if you live in an unincorporated community like Irishmans, the Knott County government takes care of things that a city government would normally do. These communities are often smaller and more rural than cities.
