Hudson and St. Croix County
Hudson is associated with St. Croix 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.
Hudson by land and water
The Census records 0.88 square miles of water within Hudson, or 11.4% of its total area. It is 9.6 percentage points higher than the 1.8% recorded for St. Croix County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
