James City County, Administrative county in Virginia, United States
James City County extends across 179 square miles of land near the Atlantic coast, featuring both urban developments and natural landscapes along the James River.
Established on July 9, 1634, James City County stands as one of the five original administrative divisions from colonial Virginia that maintain their structure today.
The county maintains strong connections to early American history through its relationship with Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown Settlement, and numerous historical buildings.
Residents access county services through the official website jccegov.com, which provides information about waste management, property taxes, and recreational programs.
The county functions as part of the Historic Triangle alongside Yorktown and Williamsburg, containing archaeological sites from the first permanent English settlement in America.
