Property Tax

One office handles both appraisal and tax bills in Roberts County

Roberts County has a single office that serves as both the appraisal district and the tax assessor-collector, so you deal with one place for property values and tax payments.

Roberts County Money & Taxes

In most Texas counties, the appraisal district (the office that sets your property value) and the tax assessor-collector (the office that sends your bill) are separate. In Roberts County they are the same office, run by the same person, at 300 E. Commercial St. in Miami.

That means questions about your appraised value, homestead exemption applications, and tax payments all go to the same address. The Texas Comptroller lists the office phone as 806-868-5281 for appraisal questions and 806-868-3611 for tax payments. You can also find the appraisal district at robertscad.org. Current tax rates, exemption deadlines, and protest procedures can change each year, so check the official directory page for the latest.

Agricultural Valuation

Most rural land in Roberts County is taxed on what it can produce, not what it would sell for

Land used for cattle grazing or crops can qualify for a lower tax value based on what the land produces. But if that use stops, back taxes called a rollback tax can come due.

Most water in Roberts County comes from the Ogallala Aquifer, the largest in the U.S., but pumping exceeds recharge rates, and new wells above a certain size require a permit from the High Plains Underground Water Conservation District.
