Where to find the official Randolph County parcel map
Randolph County's public parcel map is the AlabamaGIS / Flagship GIS - Randolph County Revenue Commission public GIS.

We keep the link current on our Randolph County (AL) directory page, next to the neighboring maps.
Who needs this map
For hobby-farm buyers near Wedowee, the parcel map shows how a tract sits against its neighbors and the road. Investors comb the area around Roanoke for unbuilt parcels and absentee owners, two clues that a tract might be for sale. Hunters near Roanoke check the lines before opening day so a blood trail or a retrieve doesn't cross onto a neighbor's ground uninvited. Contractors working in Randolph County use the map to find lot dimensions and neighboring owners before they stake a foundation or schedule a survey.
What the map covers, from Wedowee to the back roads
Besides Wedowee, which serves as the county seat, the map covers Roanoke, Wadley, and Woodland. Out in the countryside, Graham, Morrison Crossroads, and Rock Mills appear as small knots of lots along the road network. Founded in 1832 and named for John Randolph of Roanoke, the county has land records that reach back a long way, which helps when you trace a title. Roughly 22,786 people (Census Bureau, 2023) share Randolph County's 581 square miles of land. At that density most of the Randolph County map is farm and wooded ground, with smaller lots clustered around Woodland and along paved roads.
The business mix behind the map
Census business counts for 2022 list 353 establishments in Randolph County; retail trade tops the list, with other services and accommodation and food services close behind. The sectors that stand out against the national mix are forestry and logging, plastics and rubber products manufacturing, and heavy and civil engineering construction. If you're looking at wooded acreage near Wedowee, compare recent aerials; logging can change a tract quickly.
Are the Randolph County property lines accurate?
A Randolph County parcel map is built for assessment, not construction. In Randolph County, as in most places, the lines are a best fit of old deed calls onto modern aerial photos. Legal descriptions in Alabama usually lean on the section grid, so learning to read 'NE 1/4 of Section 12' pays off quickly around Woodland. For rural ground near Almond, a recorded survey or a new one is the only reliable source for the true line.
Acreage and vacant lot search
Looking for open ground between Wedowee and Wadley? Try this:
- Scan the imagery around Almond; open fields and woodlots with no driveway stand out right away.
- Open the record for each empty tract near Wedowee and note whether the owner's mailing address is outside Randolph County.
- Trace the frontage on any tract near Almond; without it, access depends on a recorded easement.
- Compare land values on similar Randolph County tracts to see whether an asking price is in the ballpark.
- Last, call the Randolph County planning or health office about permits, septic and floodplain before you commit.

Deeds, plats and who keeps them
For land near Wadley, the county probate office holds the recorded documents, and the parcel map reflects them once they're processed for taxes. For land near Roanoke, the deed will be on file with the Randolph County probate office, which handles real property recording in Alabama. When the chain of title matters for land near Roanoke, ask for the full deed history or hire a title company in Alabama.
