Unincorporated area

An unincorporated area is a parcel of land that is not governed by a local general-purpose municipal corporation.^[1] There are many unincorporated communities and areas in the United States and Canada, but many countries do not use the concept of an unincorporated area.

The Oxford Handbook of State and Local Government Finance. Oxford: Oxford University Press. pp. 176–197. ISBN 9780199765362. In other parts of the country, such as the South and West, other parts remain unincorporated. These latter areas are not served by local general-purpose municipal governments, but rather by county services. (At p. 178.)
