Getting started with the Pocatello property search
Use the Bannock County ArcGIS parcel map for a Pocatello property search; search by address, owner name or parcel ID.
Where the parcel data lives
Parcels around McCammon are published on the Bannock County ArcGIS parcel map, a viewer that needs no account. For land near Downey, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the matching parcel lights up. With a lot near Inkom, a pop-up or side panel usually lists the owner of record, assessed acreage, the parcel number and sometimes recent sales.
Offices that can help
Anything recorded against property around Chubbuck sit in the index kept by the County Recorder (the county clerk serves as recorder), often with an online index. Questions about what you can build around McCammon need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
Where Pocatello fits in
Pocatello is part of Bannock County, Idaho, which means parcel data comes from the county. Pocatello is also the county seat, handy when you need recorded documents. If you're looking near Lava Hot Springs, the municipality handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities for lots inside the boundary, but the county runs assessment and recording. Land beyond the town limits toward Downey generally falls under county rules, not municipal ones.
Trusts, estates and LLCs
For an LLC on a parcel near Arimo, look it up in the state's business registry. "Estate of" on a record near Chubbuck often points to an open probate, and the executor handles questions.
When a parcel crosses a boundary
Bannock County borders Bingham County, Caribou County, Franklin County, Oneida County, and Power County, all with their own assessor records. A tract near the line by McCammon can show up in two county records, so look at the adjacent map before you assume the acreage. The Platbookmapper state page lists every bordering county map across Idaho.
Taxes on the record
The record for a parcel near Downey often lists value and tax amounts; questions about value go to the County Assessor.
Where the recorded documents are
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements for land near Downey are filed with the County Recorder (the county clerk serves as recorder). Inherited tracts in the county can go back through a long string of deeds, and a title company can sort it out before a purchase.
When you need more than the map
A viewer entry isn't legal proof; the recorded deed at the County Recorder (the county clerk serves as recorder) is.
Legal descriptions in Idaho
Idaho follows the Public Land Survey System, which means a tract near Lava Hot Springs is described by section, township and range. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though sections near Arimo can be irregular. Copy the legal description from the record for the parcel near Lava Hot Springs for any title or survey request.
Places you'll see on the map
Pocatello serves as the county seat, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Chubbuck, Inkom, Arimo, and Downey, each with its own cluster of lots. About 90,400 people call Bannock County home (Census estimate, 2023) spread over some 1,112 square miles. Bannock County was organized in 1893, which matters when you trace an old farm's title. Places such as Portneuf River, Snake River, and Caribou National Forest are easy to spot when you zoom out from Lava Hot Springs.
Neighbors and nearby parcels
Click the parcels around the one near Downey for context on nearby owners and uses; that's handy for easements and access.
Writing to an owner
A polite note sent to the tax-bill address works better than knocking unannounced for property around Lava Hot Springs.
A word on accuracy
Acreage on the record is an assessed number; only a licensed surveyor sets the real corners for a parcel near Downey. For a tract near Inkom, owner names and values update on a schedule, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Using it on a phone
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Chubbuck, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A printout of the tract near McCammon is a good backup.

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.
