Newton is a small place located in Wabash County, Indiana, in the United States. It is known as an "unincorporated community."
What is an Unincorporated Community?
An unincorporated community like Newton is a group of homes or buildings that does not have its own local government. This means it's not officially a city or a town with a mayor or a town council. Instead, it is part of a larger area, in Newton's case, Pleasant Township.
People who live in unincorporated communities still get services like roads, schools, and emergency help. These services are usually managed by the county or township government. Newton is a quiet spot where people live, but it doesn't have the same official structure as a nearby city.
