Throckmorton County in North Central Texas is one of the least populated counties in the state, with just under 1,500 residents. Agriculture and ranching drive the local economy, and property tax assessments on farmland and ranch properties can have an outsized impact on operating costs.
67 ARB protests were filed in Throckmorton County in 2024; 57% of protests resolved through the informal process received a value reduction (Texas Comptroller, 2024 Appraisal District Operations Survey). With such a small population, the county appraisal process receives little public scrutiny — all the more reason to show up and file.
