Newbury and Orange County
Newbury is associated with Orange 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.
Newbury by land and water
The Census records 0.52 square miles of water within Newbury, or 0.8% of its total area. It is 0.1 percentage points higher than the 0.7% recorded for Orange County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
