FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I really live in the City of Union?
A common question is – My address is Union, therefore I live in the city, right? Well, maybe. The United States Postal Service sets mailing addresses, and they have a larger geographical designation for “Union” than the city limits. The physical city limits of the City are smaller than the postal designation for Union. If you live in Hampshire, Harmony, Hempsteade, Lassing Green, Lancashire, Whispering Trails, Fowlers Creek or Union Village you reside in the city limits. If you live in Triple Crown, Cool Springs, or along Frogtown Road along with other land areas, you probably live in postal Union but not in the incorporated city limits. For reference, the current city map is available at City of Union Boundary Map
