For any lot around Lorena, the Woodway GIS map shows the outline, the owner of record and a parcel ID. This Woodway guide covers: where that map lives, how to search it, and what to double-check with records.
Getting started with the Woodway GIS map
Parcel maps here are usually run by the county, not the town, so for Woodway the go-to is the McLennan CAD map.
The free map to start with
Begin with the McLennan CAD map; it includes every tax parcel around Bellmead and Lorena. Around Hewitt, enter a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the viewer zooms to the match. For acreage around Hewitt, the parcel card typically gives the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, the parcel number and in many cases the last transfer.
How land is described here
Rural deeds near Bellmead are often described by metes and bounds, listing bearings, distances and landmarks. Platted lots around Bellmead usually use lot and block from a recorded plat instead, which is simpler to follow. Keep the legal description for land near Lorena when you talk to a surveyor.
City limits and county records
Woodway lies within McLennan County, Texas, so its parcels are on the county's map. For land near Waco, city or town hall handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Land beyond the city limits near Bellmead generally answers to county rules, not municipal ones.
Recorded documents worth pulling
The map is an index, not the title: deeds, plats and easements for land near Robinson sit with the County Clerk. Long-held tracts around Beverly Hills can go back through many deeds, and a title company can sort it out if money is changing hands.
When the map won't load
If the viewer stalls on a phone near Robinson, switch browsers or turn off pop-up blockers; links occasionally change, and our directory page keeps the current one.
Getting your bearings
Waco serves as the county seat, where most land records are kept. Other places on the map include Hewitt, Beverly Hills, and Robinson, each with its own cluster of lots. About 268,583 people call McLennan County home (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) on roughly 1,037 square miles. McLennan County dates to 1850, which matters when you trace an old farm's title.
Finding the right lot
Acreage around Bellmead might not have a street number, which means panning to it and clicking. In and around Waco, searching by parcel number never misses, and it carries over to every office in the county.
What the layers show
For acreage around Bellmead, layer lists often include zoning, flood zones, city limits, school districts or contours; not every viewer has them all.
Offices that can help
Questions about value or the owner field for land near Hewitt are handled by the appraisal district, since that office keeps the assessment data. Questions about what you can build around Hewitt need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
Keeping a record
Print or screenshot the parcel near Beverly Hills with its ID visible, so you have it when calling an office.
Taking the map into the field
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near Bellmead, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A saved image of the lot near Robinson and its lines helps when you meet an owner or agent.
A word on accuracy
Listed acreage is an assessed number; only a licensed surveyor establishes the real lines on land around Bellmead. Out toward Robinson, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.
Land on the county line
McLennan County touches Bell County, Bosque County, Coryell County, Falls County, and Hill County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Robinson can be split across two assessors' files, so open the neighboring map as well. Out toward Bellmead, our state page links every neighboring county map across Texas.
Inside the parcel card
Sales history, if listed, helps with pricing around Hewitt are a useful starting point; an appraiser is the real authority.

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.
