Cody and Park County
Cody is associated with Park 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.
Cody by land and water
The Census records 0.24 square miles of water within Cody, or 2.3% of its total area. It is 1.9 percentage points higher than the 0.4% recorded for Park County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
