How to use the Lubbock County hunting map

The county's own public map is the appraisal district interactive map, built on a BIS Consulting map viewer, and it opens without an account for parcels in Ransom Canyon and the rest of the county. Search the county appraisal map by owner, address or property ID; the pop-up for a tract close to Ransom Canyon displays the account and legal description. For a backup route to the map covering Wolfforth, our Lubbock County directory entry keeps the link current.

A deed book and page or instrument number on the county record is the quickest route to pull the document for a lot in Abernathy.
