m spread (p95−p5, ~20–40 km window)

The county center sits at about 271 m above sea level. Elevation across the sampled window spreads 39 m — gently rolling terrain by our banding (flat <30 m · gently rolling 30–100 m · hilly 100–300 m · mountainous >300 m). Water covers about 6% of the county's area (Census Gazetteer). These are county-scale context, not parcel measurements — a specific parcel gets its own slope, flood and usable-acreage readings when analyzed.

Elevation measured 2026-07-21 from the AWS Terrain Tiles (terrarium encoding, z10).
