Property Tax

Two offices handle your property taxes in Lynn County

Lynn County splits property tax work between two offices, and knowing which does what saves a wasted trip.

The Lynn County Appraisal District sets the value of your property. It is located at 1615 Main St. in Tahoka. It also collects taxes for most taxing units in the county. You can reach the appraisal district by phone at 806-561-5477.

The county Tax Assessor-Collector office exists but, according to the Texas Comptroller, does not collect property taxes in Lynn County. That is handled by the appraisal district instead. If you need to protest your property value, file with the appraisal district. Check the Comptroller's county directory for current contact details, since phone numbers and staff can change.
