The official viewer behind the Long Beach GIS map
Parcel maps here are usually run by the county, not the town, and for Long Beach that means the Harrison County parcel viewer.
Where the parcel data lives
Your first stop is the Harrison County parcel viewer; it includes each tax parcel around Pass Christian and D'Iberville. Without an address in hand, follow US Route 90 on the aerial and click the parcel itself. In and around D'Iberville, write down the parcel ID while you have it open; every clerk in the county asks for it first.
Where the recorded documents are
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, subdivision plats and easements covering ground around Biloxi are filed with the Chancery Clerk. Long-held tracts around Pass Christian may trace back through several deeds, so a title company earns its fee if money is changing hands.
Field tips
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near D'Iberville, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A printout of the tract near Biloxi is a good backup.
City limits and county records
Long Beach is part of Harrison County, Mississippi, which means parcel data comes from the county. For land near Pass Christian, the municipality handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Acreage past the city limits out by Biloxi often follows county rules, not municipal ones.
How land is described here
Mississippi is laid out under the Public Land Survey System, so rural legal descriptions near Gulfport cite section, township and range. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though corrections make some sections near Pass Christian odd-sized. Write down the legal description for the tract near Gulfport for any title or survey request.
A quick look at the area
Biloxi is the county seat, home to the main records offices. Other places on the map include Pass Christian, Gulfport, and D'Iberville, each with its own cluster of lots. Around 210,612 people call Harrison County home (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) spread over roughly 574 square miles. Harrison County dates to 1841, and some chains of title near D'Iberville are long. Landmarks such as Tchoutacabouffa River, Biloxi Bay, and De Soto National Forest are easy to spot when you zoom out from D'Iberville.
Three ways to find a parcel
Addresses are the easiest route inside Long Beach; owner names are usually entered last name first. Closer to D'Iberville, searching by parcel number never misses, and you'll find it on tax statements.
When a parcel crosses a boundary
Harrison County meets St. Bernard Parish, LA, Hancock County, Jackson County, Pearl River County, and Stone County, all with their own assessor records. Acreage along the edge near Pass Christian may be split across two assessors' files, so open the adjacent map as well. For acreage around Biloxi, the Platbookmapper state page links each neighboring county map across Mississippi.

Beyond the parcel lines
An aerial view around D'Iberville helps you see where buildings sit inside the lines.
Who handles what

Inside the parcel card
Recent sales on nearby lots near Gulfport are a useful starting point; they're not an appraisal.
Keeping a record
Save a screenshot of the lot near Biloxi and its record panel, which helps later when you ask the assessor or a title company.
Before you lean on the lines
Acreage on the record is an assessed number; only a licensed surveyor sets the real lines on land around Biloxi. For a tract near Biloxi, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey, especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
