Driving I-27 past Amarillo and wondering who owns the land on either side? The Potter County parcel map answers that in a couple of clicks.
The sections below cover the map itself, the towns from Amarillo to Ady, and the deeds and surveys that settle what the map can't.
Towns, terrain and land across Potter County
Amarillo is the county seat, and other towns on the map include Bishop Hills. Crossroads communities such as Bushland, Ady, and Cliffside have their own small clusters of lots. Organized in 1887, and named for Robert Potter, Potter County has a long paper trail, and early deeds may cite landmarks that no longer exist. By Census Bureau figures, the county had roughly 114,647 residents in 2023, spread over about 908 square miles of land. The mix of town lots in Amarillo and rural acreage beyond makes the Potter County parcel map useful for house hunters and land buyers alike. Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument and Lake Meredith National Recreation Area are a big draw, and the private tracts that border public land are often the first ones hunters and cabin buyers ask about.
The Potter County economy in brief
Potter County had 3,501 business establishments in 2022 (County Business Patterns), led by retail trade, health care and social assistance, and accommodation and food services. The sectors that stand out against the national mix are oil and gas extraction, pipeline transportation, and hospitals. Ranch and farm tracts around Amarillo can carry separate mineral ownership, so read the deed before you price the surface. For a land buyer in Potter County, that mix hints at who your neighbors and competing bidders are likely to be.
