Whitehall and Lehigh County
Whitehall is associated with Lehigh 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.
Whitehall by land and water
The Census records 0.28 square miles of water within Whitehall, or 2.2% of its total area. It is 1.4 percentage points higher than the 0.8% recorded for Lehigh County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
