Where the parcel data comes from
Gates County runs this viewer (directly or through a contracted vendor), which makes it the closest thing to the source for local parcel lines. As of our October 2026 test, anyone could open it without signing in or paying.
Searching for a parcel, step by step
- Click the button above and wait for the Web AppBuilder viewer to load. Some counties show a terms screen first.
- Search by street address, owner or parcel ID if the search box offers those options.
- Click a lot on the map to read its attributes.
- Turn on aerial imagery from the basemap tool and use the layer list to add things like zoning or flood zones when they're published.
If an address search comes up empty, try the parcel number from a tax bill or deed instead, or click the lot on the map.

Before you rely on the lines
Treat the map as a guide, not a boundary survey: parcel outlines are often shifted a bit from the real corners. A licensed surveyor settles exact lines.
