Tyler County sits in the Big Thicket of Southeast Texas, with Woodville as county seat. Timber, cattle, and small-scale agriculture anchor the local economy. The effective tax rate here is among the lower end in Texas, but modest home values mean even a small over-assessment creates a real burden on fixed incomes.
Approximately 45% of protests filed in Tyler County in 2023 resulted in a value reduction. Rural doesn’t mean easy — comparable sales data and condition evidence work just as well here as anywhere. Know your rights and use them.

Before your ARB hearing, a CAD appraiser may offer to settle. Review any offer carefully before accepting — 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.”

Tyler County is deep East Texas — Big Thicket country, where generations of families have kept land in the family through hard times. A low state average rate doesn’t mean your appraisal is correct. If the number doesn’t match what your property would sell for, the founders’ principle applies here too. Look up your value. File your protest. Attend the rate hearings.
