Carol,

Nothing like being put on the spot. I am sorry to say that my expertise on hamlets is having lived in one for 16 years. My impression is they are unincorporated. I am sure someone on the list can give a less subjective answer.

        I know that New York has Towns, and that Towns can have in them
cities and villages.  My question concerns hamlets.  Are some designated
incorporated and other unincorporated?  And how does the designation come
about?
        I am sure Philip Lord can straighten this out and I will appreciate
him doing so.
        thanks,   carol kammen
