Point and Posey County
Point is associated with Posey 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.
Point by land and water
The Census records 4.6 square miles of water within Point, or 8.3% of its total area. It is 5.9 percentage points higher than the 2.4% recorded for Posey County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Point township has 17.6 times the land area of nearby Mount Vernon city (2.88 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
