Where to find the official Lee County parcel map
Open the AlabamaGIS / Flagship GIS - Lee County Revenue Commission public GIS, the map the county itself publishes for Notasulga and the rest of Lee County. Search an address in Notasulga, or pan out toward Beulah and click a rural tract; either way the record pops up with owner and acreage. We keep the link current on our Lee County (AL) directory page, next to the neighboring maps.
Who needs this map
Different people come to the Lee County parcel map for different reasons. Site planners working in Smiths Station grab the parcel ID and legal description first, then order a survey for the real dimensions. Relocating buyers who can't visit Notasulga in person use the map and aerial layer to size up a lot from a distance. An owner in Notasulga planning a fence or an outbuilding pulls the parcel first, then the recorded plat. Anyone hunting for a buildable lot near Smiths Station can spot unbuilt parcels on the aerial layer and look up who owns them.
What the map covers, from Opelika to the back roads
Auburn, Phenix City, Smiths Station, and Loachapoka fill out the town list, and Opelika is where the county seat sits. The county was organized in 1866 and named for General Robert E. Lee, so some tracts carry a long chain of deeds. Lee County covers about 608 square miles of land; its 2023 population estimate from the Census Bureau was 183,215. With that many people per square mile, the Lee County parcel layer is crowded with platted lots, and the remaining open tracts stand out quickly.
Local industry and what it means for land
Census business counts for 2022 list 3,304 establishments in Lee County; retail trade tops the list, with accommodation and food services and other services close behind. The sectors that stand out against the national mix are transportation equipment manufacturing, forestry and logging, and plastics and rubber products manufacturing. That points to working timberland, so check whether a wooded parcel in Lee County has been cut recently or is enrolled in a forestry program. It's useful background when you're judging whether a tract near Auburn will hold its value.
Property lines in Lee County, Alabama
Lines on the map show roughly where one parcel near Waverly ends and the next begins; the exact spot is a surveyor's call. The section grid shapes many farm tracts around Beulah; boundaries often follow quarter-section lines you can spot on the map. If a neighbor's fence near Waverly and the map disagree, neither one is proof. A survey is.
Acreage and vacant lot search
Looking for open ground between Waverly and Phenix City? Try this:
- Turn on the photo basemap and work outward from Waverly one road at a time, flagging parcels with no buildings.
- Open the record for each empty tract near Waverly and note whether the owner's mailing address is outside Lee County.
- Check that the tract touches a public road; a landlocked lot near Waverly can be hard to finance and build on.
- Line up the assessed land values of a few neighboring tracts near Auburn to sanity-check an asking price.
- Ask the local offices serving Waverly about building permits and septic rules before you buy.
Recorded documents and the parcel record
For land near Phenix City, the county probate office holds the recorded documents, and the parcel map reflects them once they're processed for taxes. For land near Loachapoka, the deed will be on file with the Lee County probate office, which handles real property recording in Alabama. Rural tracts near Beulah may go back through several deeds; the instrument number on the record is the first link in that chain.
