What is the "unincorporated county"?

Living in the unincorporated county means that your government representation is at the county level, but it means that you are not part of a city. It likely means that the majority of your services (think police, fire, etc.) are provided through the county.

Your voice is heard through an at-large county council person. You may enjoy the benefits of having a local community council through a township. But the Utah Township laws will expire on December 31, 2009 and that volunteer representation will be dissolved, unless Township legislation is passed by the 2009 State Legislature.
