Newport and Lincoln County
Newport is associated with Lincoln 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.
Newport by land and water
The Census records 1.74 square miles of water within Newport, or 14.9% of its total area. It is 3 percentage points lower than the 17.9% recorded for Lincoln County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
