Madison and Fairfield County
Madison is associated with Fairfield 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.
Madison by land and water
The Census records 0.1 square miles of water within Madison, or 0.3% of its total area. It is 0.5 percentage points lower than the 0.8% recorded for Fairfield County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
