Unincorporated Marin

What is unincorporated Marin? And why does it matter?

Unincorporated Marin?

Unincorporated Marin means a place without its own mayor and police department. These places are served by county government. We are the ones who help with your police, your roads, and your building permits.

If you live in an incorporated city, please contact the city government that provides these services. 

Here’s a tool to answer your question

This property jurisdiction information tool tells you if your address is part of an incorporated city or if it is part of unincorporated Marin. The tool gives you the answer using your address or your parcel number.
