Disclaimer
James City County makes every reasonable effort to ensure the accuracy of the data set. Within the urban areas of the County, we hope to have a plus or minus 5-foot accuracy. Out in the rural areas, where sometimes we don't have any recently recorded plats, the accuracy could go higher to almost a plus or minus 20 feet.
