Union and Dodge County
Union is associated with Dodge 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.
Union by land and water
The Census records 1.9 square miles of water within Union, or 3.8% of its total area. It is 1.2 percentage points higher than the 2.6% recorded for Dodge County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Union township has 42.2 times the land area of nearby North Bend city (1.14 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
