Weighing a property around Vick? Checking the Concho County flood zone map reveals whether it sits in a FEMA flood zone, and it costs nothing to check. What this Concho County guide covers: finding the address on FEMA's map, reading the zone codes, and pairing it with the Concho CAD interactive map.
Checking the Concho County flood zone map step by step
If you'd rather pan and zoom, open the National Flood Hazard Layer viewer, which lets you click a spot and read its zone, whether the land is near Millersview or elsewhere in the county. Vacant ground around Eden is still easy to locate: search the nearest road and click inside the land.
Getting to the right map
Begin with the Concho CAD interactive map; it includes each assessed parcel from Eden to Vick. Closer to Vick, enter a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. If you're looking near Vick, write down the parcel ID while you have it open; each clerk in the county uses it to find the file.
What the map can't tell you
Closer to Millersview, listed acreage is an estimate; only a licensed surveyor establishes the real boundary on the ground. Owner names and values update on a schedule, so a recent sale near Paint Rock might lag behind.
Questions to ask before you buy
In and around Eden, request for any Elevation Certificate before closing; getting a quote early avoids surprises.
Concho County in a few facts
Paint Rock serves as the county seat, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Eden, Eola, Lowake, and Millersview, where town lots give way to larger tracts. About 3,297 people live in Concho County (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) across roughly 984 square miles. Concho County was formed in 1879, which matters when you trace an old farm's title.
Beyond the mapped zones
Low-lying fields near Paint Rock aren't always studied in detail, so ask neighbors about past flooding. Wetlands near Eola can limit building even outside a flood zone; the National Wetlands Inventory mapper shows mapped wetlands.
Which office to call
For assessment questions about property around Eola belong with the appraisal district, which maintains the tax roll. Building or septic questions for a lot near Eola go to planning, building or health offices, depending on whether the land is inside town limits.
Reading the legal description
Rural deeds near Paint Rock commonly use metes-and-bounds descriptions, which trace the boundary call by call. Platted lots around Eola are typically described by lot and block, which is simpler to follow. Copy the legal description from the record for the parcel near Millersview for any title or survey request.
When a parcel crosses a boundary
Concho County borders Coleman County, McCulloch County, Menard County, Runnels County, and Schleicher County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Paint Rock may show up across two assessors' files, so check the adjacent map before you assume the acreage. For property near Paint Rock, the Platbookmapper state page lists each neighboring county map for Texas.
Decoding the flood zone labels
On ground around Eola, any A or V zone mark the Special Flood Hazard Area, land with a 1-percent chance of flooding in any year. Out toward Eola, a shaded X area marks moderate flood hazard, roughly the 100- to 500-year range; unshaded X is minimal risk.
Lining it up with the parcel map
FEMA doesn't draw property lines, so pair it with the Concho CAD interactive map for the outline of the tract near Millersview.
Lenders and permits
For a structure inside an A or V zone and the loan is federally backed or regulated, flood insurance is generally required in communities in the NFIP, which applies near Eden as much as anywhere. New construction in a floodplain near Vick often needs a floodplain permit; call the permitting office early.
Using it on a phone
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, useful out on a road near Paint Rock, though signal can drop in rural spots. A screenshot of the parcel near Eden with its ID is a good backup.
