Does Chesapeake-Pamlico Lowlands and Tidal Marshes describe all of Accomack County?+

The county’s mapped footprint intersects 3 regional units; Chesapeake-Pamlico Lowlands and Tidal Marshes is the largest mapped share. County-scale information cannot establish the soil, slope, drainage, or development potential of one tract.
