Burleson Sits in Both Johnson and Tarrant Counties

The city of Burleson straddles the Johnson-Tarrant county line, which means your address in Burleson may be in a different county than your neighbor's.

Johnson County Rules & Licenses

Burleson is one of the fastest-growing cities in the county. The city extends into both Johnson and Tarrant counties. Your county matters for which appraisal district handles your property, which tax office you pay, and which county court handles legal matters.

If you have a Burleson address, confirm which county your parcel is in. You can look up your property through the Central Appraisal District of Johnson County (johnsoncad.com) or Tarrant Appraisal District (tad.org), depending on location. The Texas Comptroller's county directory is a good starting point.
