Finding your parcel within Pike County

The atlas lists 9 cities, towns, townships, and Census communities associated with Pike County, including Pikeville, Coal Run Village, Phelps. The list includes overlapping geography types and does not divide the county into exclusive service areas.

Pike County

Pike County by land and water

The Census records 2.35 square miles of water within Pike County, or 0.3% of its total area. That share is close to Pike County’s 0.3%. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Pike County has 37.9 times the land area of nearby Pikeville city (20.8 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

The Census boundary meets Floyd County, Knott County, Letcher County, Martin County within Kentucky. A tract near one of these lines should be matched to the county identifier on its own records.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Pike County land.

These starting questions follow this location’s jurisdiction, regional setting, and nearby geography. The answers come from the property itself.

01

Locate the parcel within Pike County

Use a tax bill, deed, or assessor’s parcel number to pin down the land in Pike County. The county includes 9 listed community geographies; a nearby community name does not prove the parcel is inside its limits.

02

Read the Dissected Appalachian Plateau setting

Dissected Appalachian Plateau belongs to Central Appalachians. How much of the tract is on ridge tops or valley sides, and what records identify the approach road and usable areas?

03

Check the route, beyond Pikeville

Pikeville is 6.5 miles west of the Pike County reference point. That geographic proximity does not establish a drivable route or legal access. Which road reaches your land, and is the right to use it recorded?

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Pike County
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 Pike County?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Pike County. Pike County’s 786.2 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Does Dissected Appalachian Plateau describe all of Pike County?+

The county’s mapped footprint falls within the mapped Dissected Appalachian Plateau regional unit. County-scale information cannot establish the soil, slope, drainage, or development potential of one tract.

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

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 6.5 miles west of Pike County’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 Pike County?+

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.
