Getting started with the Henderson GIS map
In most places the county maintains the parcel layer, which makes the County Parcels in Nevada layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer the main source for lots in Henderson.
Pulling up a parcel
Your first stop is the County Parcels in Nevada layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer; it covers every assessed parcel around Las Vegas and Boulder City. For a tract near Mesquite, enter a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. For property near Boulder City, the parcel card usually lists the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, the parcel number and in many cases the last transfer.
Henderson and the county around it
Henderson lies within Clark County, Nevada, and the county assessor maps its lots. For land near Las Vegas, the municipality handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities inside its limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Acreage past the city limits near Mesquite often answers to county rules rather than the town's.
Who handles what
Deeds, mortgages and recorded plats for land near Mesquite come from the County Recorder, often with an online index. Building or septic questions for a lot near Boulder City need the planning or permitting office, depending on whether the land is inside town limits.
Finding the right lot
Acreage around Las Vegas might not have a street number, so zoom in from Interstate 15 and click the outline. For a home near Boulder City, searching by parcel number never misses, and it's printed on tax bills.
Getting your bearings
Las Vegas is the county seat, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Boulder City, North Las Vegas, and Mesquite, where town lots give way to larger tracts. Around 2,336,573 people call Clark County home (Census estimate, 2023) across roughly 7,892 square miles. Places such as Colorado River, Lake Mead, and Avi Kwa Ame National Monument are easy to spot when you zoom out from Las Vegas.
Where the recorded documents are
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements covering ground around Mesquite are kept by the County Recorder. Around Boulder City, have ready the instrument number from the tax record to skip a name search.

Land on the county line
Clark County meets Mohave County, AZ, Inyo County, CA, San Bernardino County, CA, Lincoln County, and Nye County; every one of them runs a separate parcel map. Ground near Boulder City that runs to the line may be split in two county records, so check the adjacent map as well. For a home near Mesquite, the Platbookmapper state page links each bordering county map for Nevada.
How land is described here

A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, with 36 sections to a township, though sections near Boulder City can be irregular. Write down the legal description for the tract near Mesquite before you request a deed or survey.
Limits of the parcel data
The acreage figure is a tax-roll number; only a licensed surveyor establishes the real corners on land around Las Vegas. With a lot near Mesquite, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Using it on a phone
