THE JERUSALEM LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges setting.

Jerusalem town has 58.6 square miles of land in Yates County. Its Census reference point is in Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges, within Northern Allegheny Plateau.

Rolling hills, broad valleys and low mountains are mantled by glacial deposits. Sandstone, shale and siltstone underlie a mix of open land and woodland across the northern plateau.

Regional context: Northern Allegheny Plateau ↗ · Classification at the Census reference point

Jerusalem and Yates County

Jerusalem is associated with Yates 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.

Yates County

Jerusalem by land and water

The Census records 6.76 square miles of water within Jerusalem, or 10.3% of its total area. It is 0.3 percentage points higher than the 10% recorded for Yates County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Jerusalem town has 70.4 times the land area of nearby Keuka Park CDP (0.83 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Jerusalem land.

These are questions we consider as a potential buyer, based on this location’s jurisdiction, regional setting, and nearby geography. Our purchase decision depends on the actual parcel.

01

Locate the parcel within Jerusalem

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

02

Read the Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges setting

Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges belongs to Northern Allegheny Plateau. How does the tract divide between valley ground and hillside, and where does the documented road connection enter?

03

Check the route, beyond Keuka Park

Keuka Park is 3.3 miles east of the Jerusalem 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 Jerusalem
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 Jerusalem?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Yates County. Jerusalem’s 58.6 square miles of land include many different property situations; we consider the exact parcel for our own purchase.

Is every Jerusalem property in Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges?+

No. Finger Lakes Uplands and Gorges is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Jerusalem 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 Keuka Park as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 3.3 miles east of Jerusalem’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 Jerusalem?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell USA Land Offers 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.
