New Union and Etowah County
New Union is associated with Etowah County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
New Union by land and water
The Census records 0.03 square miles of water within New Union, or 0.2% of its total area. It is 2.3 percentage points lower than the 2.5% recorded for Etowah County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
