Carlisle and Schoharie County
Carlisle is associated with Schoharie 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.
Carlisle by land and water
The Census records 0.13 square miles of water within Carlisle, or 0.4% of its total area. It is 0.3 percentage points lower than the 0.7% recorded for Schoharie County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Carlisle town has 1.1 times the land area of nearby Cobleskill town (30.6 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
