THE ANN ARBOR LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Clayey High Lime Till Plains setting.

Ann Arbor city has 28.4 square miles of land in Washtenaw County. Its Census reference point is in Clayey High Lime Till Plains, within Eastern Corn Belt Plains.

Rolling glacial till plains are interrupted by end moraines and areas of older, more dissected deposits. The historical landscape had more tree cover than the Central Corn Belt to the west.

Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County

Ann Arbor is associated with Washtenaw 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.

Washtenaw County

Ann Arbor by land and water

The Census records 0.87 square miles of water within Ann Arbor, or 3% of its total area. It is 0.7 percentage points higher than the 2.3% recorded for Washtenaw County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Ann Arbor city has 34.9 times the land area of nearby Barton Hills village (0.81 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor

Use a tax bill, deed, or assessor’s parcel number to pin down the land in Ann Arbor. Check the Washtenaw County geography against the actual property location.

02

Read the Clayey High Lime Till Plains setting

Clayey High Lime Till Plains belongs to Eastern Corn Belt Plains. Does the acreage occupy a till plain, moraine rise or drainage valley, and what does the survey establish about access?

03

Check the route, beyond Barton Hills

Barton Hills is 3.1 miles northwest of the Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor
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 Ann Arbor?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Washtenaw County. Ann Arbor’s 28.4 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Ann Arbor property in Clayey High Lime Till Plains?+

No. Clayey High Lime Till Plains is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Ann Arbor 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 Barton Hills as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 3.1 miles northwest of Ann Arbor’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 Ann Arbor?+

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.
