When land near Perry catches your eye, a look at the Centerville GIS map gives you the outline, the owner of record and a parcel ID. In this Centerville guide: where that map lives, the fastest ways to search, and what to double-check with records.
Opening the Centerville GIS map
In most places the county maintains the parcel layer, so for Centerville the go-to is the Houston County qPublic map.
Opening the official parcel viewer
Lots and tracts near Byron are published on the Houston County qPublic map, which opens without registering. When a rural tract has no street number, pan along US Route 129 until the lines appear, then click inside the one you want. If the land is near Warner Robins, the record panel normally shows the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and often a sale date.
Where Centerville fits in
Centerville lies within Houston County, Georgia, which means parcel data comes from the county. Local government in Centerville handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities for lots inside the boundary, but the county runs assessment and recording. Land beyond the town limits toward Byron generally follows county rules instead.
When a parcel crosses a boundary
Houston County meets Bibb County, Bleckley County, Crawford County, Dooly County, and Macon County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Ground near Warner Robins that runs to the line can be split in two county records, so check the adjacent map as well.
