The Pinal County plat book: start here

Pulling up a parcel

If you only know roughly where the land is, follow the nearest road on the aerial and click the parcel itself, which applies near Hohokam Pima National Monument as much as anywhere. With a lot near Cactus Forest, write down the parcel ID before closing the panel; each clerk in the county uses it to find the file.
Which office to call
Deeds, mortgages and recorded plats for land near Maricopa are with the County Recorder, usually searchable by name or document number. Building or septic questions for a lot near Hohokam Pima National Monument are for the local planning and health departments, depending on whether the land is inside town limits.
Neighboring parcel maps
Pinal County meets Gila County, Graham County, Maricopa County, and Pima County, all with their own assessor records.

Using it on a phone
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Casa Grande, so load it before you lose signal. A screenshot of the parcel near Maricopa with its ID keeps working without signal.
What the map can't tell you
With a lot near Blackwater, listed acreage is an estimate; just a licensed surveyor sets the real lines on the ground. For acreage around Florence, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Buying or borrowing a copy
Not every county has a current edition, so ask at the courthouse, extension office or a local library near Ak-Chin Village.
The free online alternative
The Pinal County ArcGIS parcel map is updated more often than any atlas, for tracts near Casa Grande Ruins National Monument.
Printing your own
Screenshot each section of the viewer around Ak-Chin Village to build your own up-to-date atlas.
Not the same thing
Around Hohokam Pima National Monument, a plat book is not a recorded plat: the recorded plat at the County Recorder is a legal document, and the atlas is just a guide.
Deeds, plats and who keeps them
For anything that matters, pull the recorded deed through the County Recorder; the parcel line is a drawing of it, which applies near Ak-Chin Village as much as anywhere. Closer to Hohokam Pima National Monument, bring the document number from the tax record to skip a name search.
Reading the legal description
Arizona uses the Public Land Survey System, so rural legal descriptions near Casa Grande Ruins National Monument cite section, township and range. Each section is nominally a mile square, about 640 acres, with 36 sections to a township, though corrections make some sections near Casa Grande Ruins National Monument odd-sized. Keep the legal description for land near Blackwater for any title or survey request.
