Westview is a small place in Indiana, United States. It is known as an "unincorporated community." This means it's a group of homes and businesses that are part of a larger area, like a township or county. It does not have its own separate local government, like a city or town would.

Where is Westview Located?

Westview is found in Steuben County, which is in the northeastern part of Indiana. It is specifically located within Salem Township. This area is known for its beautiful lakes and countryside.

What Does "Unincorporated" Mean?

An unincorporated community like Westview does not have its own mayor or town council. Instead, the services for the people living there are managed by the larger county or township government. This can include things like roads, police, and fire services. It's different from a city or town that has its own local rules and leaders.
