The Census records 16.5 square miles of water within Towner County, or 1.6% of its total area. That share is close to Towner County’s 1.6%. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

01

Locate the parcel within Towner County

02

Read the Northern Black Prairie setting

Northern Black Prairie belongs to Northern Glaciated Plains. What do current parcel maps show about depressions, drainage and road frontage within the glacial plain?

03

Check the route, beyond Sorenson

Sorenson is 2.5 miles southwest of the Towner County 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?
