Normally....

If you live in a residential zoning district that does not permit group homes at all, and someone wants to establish a group home but group homes are only allowed in commercial districts, then the proponent of the group home normally would have to apply for a zoning change (usually both a zoning amendment and a zoning map amendment). This would require legal notice (the local zoning ordinances would specify the radius around the property of people who would be entitled to notice and to object at public hearing). Normally also if the result is a commercial "island" in a residential district that does not connect to a commercial district, that's called "spot zoning" and not favored or, in many places, prohibited.

If the commercial district abuts (shares a dividing line) with the residential district, there may be nothing that can be done to prevent it if the use is a permitted use in the commercial district and otherwise meets the zoning criteria of the commercial district. Often commercial districts include city centers.

HOWEVER, many uses like this, are often "special uses" in residential districts, or whatever district they may be allowed to be in at all. So even if it is allowed in a residential district, if it's allowed only as a "special use", then again you need notice and hearing(s).

And when you say it's in the "county" and not part of a municipality, other considerations may apply.

By law do you have to have rear access to property?

Your local zoning or subdivision regulations may have the answer.

Some property has NO access, like landlocked timber lots, which is permitted under county rules or a grandfather clause of municipal rules.
