THE KIRKLAND LAND BRIEF
Land in the
Mohawk Valley setting.
Kirkland town has 33.8 square miles of land in Oneida County. Its Census reference point is in Mohawk Valley, within Eastern Great Lakes Lowlands.
Glacially shaped lowlands and irregular plains border the Great Lakes and adjacent hills. The lakes influence regional weather, while local landforms reflect both glacial deposits and former shorelines.

Kirkland and Oneida County
Kirkland is associated with Oneida 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.
Kirkland by land and water
The Census records 0.05 square miles of water within Kirkland, or 0.2% of its total area. It is 3.5 percentage points lower than the 3.6% recorded for Oneida County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Kirkland town has 53.9 times the land area of nearby Clinton village (0.63 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
