What is an Unincorporated Community?

You might be wondering what an "unincorporated community" is! It's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government, like a mayor or a town council. Instead, it's usually governed by the larger county or township it's a part of. So, for Warsaw, its local services and rules come from Jefferson County and Warsaw Township.

A Glimpse into Warsaw's History

Warsaw has a simple but interesting past. One important part of its history involves its post office. A post office was first opened in Warsaw way back in 1836. This was a very important place for people to send and receive letters and packages, connecting the community to the rest of the world. The post office served the community for many years before it finally closed its doors in 1913.
