This page is about getting you to it, not about pretending we hold something we do not. The county is genuinely mixed: 17,441 of 49,438 classified parcels are on septic and the rest are sewered. Which side of that line a West Bend address falls on is worth establishing before anything else. The county publishes a records portal, but reaching the documents needs an account or a login, so budget for that step rather than expecting an open search.
