Comox Land District

The Comox Land District is one of the 59 land districts of British Columbia, Canada, which are part of the cadastral divisions of British Columbia, created with rest of those on Vancouver Island via the Lands Act of the Colony of Vancouver Island. The British Columbia government's BC Names system, a subdivision of GeoBC, defines a land district as "a territorial division with legally defined boundaries for administrative purposes". All land titles and surveys use the Land District system as the primary point of reference, and entries in BC Names for placenames and geographical objects are so listed.

Description
The Comox Land District lies between the Nelson Land District to the south, the Sayward Land District to the north, and the Nootka Land District to the west. There is a maritime boundary in the Strait of Georgia with the New Westminster Land District on the southeast, and with the Sayward Land District on the northwest.
