Sitka by land and water

The Census records 1,904.3 square miles of water within Sitka, or 39.9% of its total area. That share is close to Sitka City and Borough’s 39.9%. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Sitka
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Sitka?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Sitka City and Borough. Sitka’s 2,870.2 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Sitka property in Coastal Western Hemlock-Sitka Spruce Forests?+

No. Coastal Western Hemlock-Sitka Spruce Forests is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Sitka boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Angoon as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 37.3 miles northeast of Sitka’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Sitka?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
