New Kent County

New Kent County was formed in 1654 by the House of Burgesses when it was carved from what was then York County. New Kent’s original land area included what is now the Counties of King William, King and Queen, Spotsylvania, Louisa and parts of Caroline, Hanover and James City Counties.

New Kent has been ranked among the 100 fastest growing counties in the U. S. in terms of new dwelling units as well as in terms of percent population change.
