Buffalo and Leon County
Buffalo is associated with Leon 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.
Buffalo by land and water
The Census records 0.02 square miles of water within Buffalo, or 0.4% of its total area. It is 0.3 percentage points lower than the 0.7% recorded for Leon County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
