The lay of the land in Hubbard County
Besides Park Rapids, which serves as the county seat, the map covers Akeley, Laporte, and Nevis. Don't overlook unincorporated places like Hubbard, Lake George, and Benedict, where rural homesites often come up. By Census Bureau figures, the county had roughly 22,132 residents in 2023, spread over about 926 square miles of land. Outside Nevis the parcels open up quickly into farms, timber and small acreage homesites.
How accurate are Hubbard County, MN property lines?
A lot line on the Hubbard County GIS map near Nevis is a drawing based on deeds, not a measurement taken on site. Minnesota uses the Public Land Survey System, so rural deeds in Hubbard County often describe land by section, township and range, and you can match the call to the grid on the map. For a fence, an addition or a dispute in Hubbard County, budget for a licensed survey; it's the answer a court or a lender will accept.
