Important Notice
Jackson Central Appraisal District has no authority to receive tax payments. All tax payments must be mailed or delivered to the Jackson County Tax Assessor/Collector or visit www.jacksoncountytax.com. Since Jackson CAD does not collect property taxes, we do not have tax information (amount due…) on our website under property search. You must contact the Tax Office for this information.
To calculate an estimate for your property taxes, please visit www.jacksoncountytax.com.
Enter your account number, scroll to the bottom, and look for the “What If Calculator”. Enter your new appraised value and select any exemptions that ae shown on your appraisal notice, then click “Estimate Taxes”.
The Mission Statement of the Jackson Central Appraisal District is to provide excellent quality appraisal services in a fair and efficient manner that is cost effective.
Additions to Texas Government Code section 551.043, effective on September 1, 2025, require a taxpayer impact statement showing, for the median-valued homestead property in each governmental body, a comparison of the property tax bill in dollars pertaining to the property for the current fiscal year to an estimate of the property tax bill in dollars for the same property for the upcoming fiscal year if the proposed budget is adopted. Since the District does not adopt a tax rate and does not impose property taxes, adoption of the District’s budget would have no direct impact on a taxpayer property tax bill in the District.

Notice – Tax Code Section 26.04 (e‐2): Each owner of property located in the appraisal district can find estimated amount of taxes to be imposed on the owner’s property by each taxing unit in which the property is located in a property tax database maintained by the appraisal district as described under Section 26.17 of the Texas Property Tax Code.
Visit Texas.gov/PropertyTaxes to find a link to your local property tax database on which you can easily access information regarding your property taxes, including information regarding the amount of taxes that each entity that taxes your property will impose if the entity adopts its proposed tax rate. Your local property tax database will be updated regularly during August and September as local elected officials propose and adopt the property tax rates that will determine how much you pay in property taxes.
A property owner may request from the county assessor‐collector for the county in which the property is located, contact information for the assessor for each taxing unit which the property is located who must provide the information described in this subsection to the owner on request.
