From the lots in Burnside to the back roads near Antioch, the Pulaski County plat map shows who owns what and roughly where the lines fall.
We'll start with the official link, then cover Science Hill and the other towns, land types, property lines and records.
Towns, terrain and land across Pulaski County
Start your bearings with Somerset, the county seat, then Burnside, Eubank, Ferguson, and Science Hill. Don't overlook unincorporated places like Acorn, Alcalde, and Antioch, where rural homesites often come up. Organized in 1798, and named for Casimir Pulaski, Pulaski County has a long paper trail, and early deeds may cite landmarks that no longer exist. Roughly 66,191 people (Census Bureau, 2023) share Pulaski County's 658 square miles of land. The mix of town lots in Burnside and rural acreage beyond makes the Pulaski County parcel map useful for house hunters and land buyers alike.
Work and land use in Pulaski County
Census business counts for 2022 list 1,448 establishments in Pulaski County; retail trade tops the list, with health care and social assistance and other services close behind. Compared with the nation, the county has an unusually high share of businesses in wood product manufacturing, nursing and residential care, and transportation equipment manufacturing. Around Eubank, a wooded tract on the map may be a working forest; recent aerials and the deed will show whether timber rights were reserved.
Getting into the Pulaski County Beacon site
Pulaski County's public parcel map is the Pulaski County Beacon site, hosted on Schneider Geospatial's Beacon platform. Use the search tab to look up a Pulaski County parcel by owner name, address or parcel number, then switch to the map view to see the lines on an aerial photo. If the official link ever moves, the Pulaski County page on Platbookmapper keeps the current version.
Using the Pulaski County plat map to find vacant land
Looking for open ground between Somerset and Eubank? Try this:
- Follow the roads out of Eubank with aerials on and mark every tract without a rooftop.
- Open the record for each empty tract near Somerset and note whether the owner's mailing address is outside Pulaski County.
- Confirm legal access. In Pulaski County, as anywhere, a parcel with no road frontage depends on an easement.
- Size up price by comparing a few similar tracts around Somerset on the assessment records.
- For a tract near Eubank, confirm zoning, septic suitability and flood status before you make an offer.
For a tract near Eubank with no road frontage, see how to tell if land is landlocked.
Who uses the Pulaski County parcel map
The same map serves very different jobs around Burnside. If a listing in Science Hill says the yard backs up to open land, the map shows who owns that land. Contractors quoting work near Antioch check frontage and lot depth on the map before they drive out. Turkey hunters near Somerset use the map in spring to confirm which fields their permission actually covers.
How accurate are Pulaski County, KY property lines?
Lines on the map show roughly where one parcel near Somerset ends and the next begins; the exact spot is a surveyor's call. Kentucky is a metes-and-bounds state. Rural deeds in Pulaski County describe boundaries with bearings, distances and landmarks rather than a square grid, so parcel lines are often irregular. For rural ground near Antioch, a recorded survey or a new one is the only reliable source for the true line.
Where Pulaski County deeds and plats are kept
Land research in Pulaski County usually means two stops: the Property Valuation Administrator (PVA), then the county clerk for the documents themselves. In Pulaski County, the Property Valuation Administrator (PVA) assesses real property and keeps the parcel maps, while the county clerk records deeds. If the Pulaski County parcel record shows an instrument number, that number is the shortcut to the recorded deed.
