In most cases the county government is located in the courthouse.
This is where you will find vital records, such as birth, marriage and death.
Typically this is also the home to the assessor and the clerk, where you will find property records.
Circuit clerks are keepers of court records, criminal and civil.
The courthouse is also where you typically find the county prosecutor and the sheriff, who collects property taxes.
Population statistics are from the 2002 post-census survey.
