Who runs this map

This map is published by or for Benton County itself, so it reflects the local parcel layer rather than a third-party copy. As of our October 2026 test, anyone could open it without signing in or paying.

Searching for a parcel, step by step

  1. Press the button above to open Beacon, the Schneider Geospatial parcel platform this county uses. Accept the usage terms if asked.
  2. Search by address, owner or parcel number, or zoom in and click a lot.
  3. From a parcel's pop-up, open the full record to see values, sales or building data where the county shares them.
  4. Switch layers on or off to compare parcels with aerials, zoning or other overlays.

Rural addresses don't always geocode well. When that happens, zoom in by hand and click the parcel, or search by owner name.

A note on accuracy

Online parcel lines are drawn for tax and planning use. They can be off by several feet, so use a recorded plat or a licensed surveyor for fences, setbacks or a sale.
