When a listing near Florey mentions a lot number, you'll need the Andrews plat map to make sense of it. Covered here for Andrews: where to request a copy, how a plat differs from a parcel map, and the details that matter to buyers.
Who keeps the Andrews plat map
For land around McKinney Acres, look for the plat book reference on the parcel record; bring that to the recorder's office or its online index.
Pulling up a parcel
Go first to the Andrews CAD interactive map; it maps every tax parcel around McKinney Acres and Frankel City. For a home near Florey, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the matching parcel lights up. With a lot near McKinney Acres, the parcel card typically gives the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, the parcel number and in many cases the last transfer.
Where Andrews fits in
Andrews sits in Andrews County, Texas, which means parcel data comes from the county. Andrews is also the county seat, handy when you need recorded documents. Closer to McKinney Acres, City or town hall handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities inside its limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Land beyond the town limits toward Florey generally answers to county rules rather than the town's.
Before you lean on the lines
The acreage figure is an estimate; only a licensed surveyor establishes the real corners on land around Frankel City. For a home near Florey, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.
Two different maps
The tax map on the Andrews CAD interactive map is a summary, but the recorded plat is what the deed relies on.
Reading the legal description
Older tracts around Florey commonly use metes-and-bounds descriptions, which trace the boundary call by call. Subdivision lots in McKinney Acres usually use lot and block from a recorded plat instead, which is simpler to follow. Keep the legal description for land near Florey for any title or survey request.
Land outside a subdivision
Rural land near McKinney Acres that was never subdivided is often described by metes and bounds or survey description; look for a recorded survey for land there.
When a plat changes
An amended plat may change lots around McKinney Acres, so check for later filings; vacated streets or alleys also get recorded.
Where the recorded documents are
For anything that matters, get the recorded deed from the County Clerk; the parcel map near Frankel City only summarizes it. Out toward McKinney Acres, have ready the document number from the tax record so staff can find the deed fast.
Reading the plat sheet
Out toward Florey, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.
Places you'll see on the map

Roughly 18,664 people call Andrews County home (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) spread over some 1,501 square miles. Andrews County was formed in 1910, which matters when you trace an old farm's title.
Land on the county line
Andrews County borders Lea County, NM, Ector County, Gaines County, Martin County, and Midland County; every one of them runs a separate parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Florey can be split in two county records, so check the neighboring map before you assume the acreage. For land near McKinney Acres, the Platbookmapper state page links every neighboring county map for Texas.
On site with the map
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Frankel City, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A saved image of the lot near Florey and its lines keeps working without signal.

Getting a copy
