Stonewall County sits in the Rolling Plains of West Texas with Aspermont as its county seat — one of the smaller county seats in Texas, serving a farming and ranching community whose population has declined steadily with agricultural consolidation. The county’s economy runs on cotton, cattle, and the modest commercial activity that a community of 1,400 requires. The Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River drains the county’s terrain.
At 0.82%, Stonewall County’s effective rate falls below the national median. Even at modest rates, accurate valuations matter — and in a county this small, few ever protest. Your deadline is May 15, 2026.

Before your ARB hearing, a CAD appraiser may offer to settle. Review any offer carefully — you can accept or proceed to the formal hearing.
The Appraisal Review Board is independent of the CAD. Present your evidence clearly and concisely. Most hearings run 15–30 minutes.
Disagree with the ARB ruling? You may appeal to district court, binding arbitration, or SOAH (properties over $1 million).
“No person’s particular services shall be demanded, nor property taken or applied to public use, unless by the consent of himself or his representative, without just compensation being made therefor.”
— Section 13, Declaration of Rights, Republic of Texas, 1836
Stonewall County’s farmers and ranchers have worked the Rolling Plains for over a century, building communities on land that rewards patience and punishes shortcuts. The founders wrote that no property shall be taken without consent and just compensation. Even where almost nobody protests, the right exists and the accuracy requirement doesn’t change. Look up your value. File your protest. Rolling Plains agriculture deserves fair assessment.
