THE LAKEWOOD LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Low Lime Drift Plain setting.

Lakewood village has 1.96 square miles of land in Chautauqua County. Its Census reference point is in Low Lime Drift Plain, within Erie Drift Plain.

Low rounded hills, glacial moraines, kettles and wetland areas define the Erie Drift Plain. Its terrain is more varied than nearby flatter farming regions and less rugged than the unglaciated plateaus.

Regional context: Erie Drift Plain ↗ · Classification at the Census reference point

Lakewood and Chautauqua County

Lakewood is associated with Chautauqua 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.

Chautauqua County

Lakewood by land and water

The Census records 0 square miles of water within Lakewood, or 0% of its total area. It is 29.3 percentage points lower than the 29.3% recorded for Chautauqua County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Lakewood village has 77.8% of the land area of nearby Jamestown West CDP (2.52 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Lakewood 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 Lakewood

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

02

Read the Low Lime Drift Plain setting

Low Lime Drift Plain belongs to Erie Drift Plain. What do parcel-specific maps show about moraine slopes, low depressions and the route from road frontage to the land?

03

Check the route, beyond Jamestown West

Jamestown West is 2.1 miles east of the Lakewood 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 Lakewood
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 Lakewood?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Chautauqua County. Lakewood’s 1.96 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Lakewood property in Low Lime Drift Plain?+

No. Low Lime Drift Plain is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Lakewood 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 Jamestown West as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 2.1 miles east of Lakewood’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 Lakewood?+

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.
