Wilson County sits immediately southeast of Bexar County, making it one of San Antonio’s fastest-growing suburban counties. Floresville serves as county seat, and the county’s rural character has been rapidly overtaken by residential development as buyers seek affordability relative to San Antonio’s inner suburbs. Appraisals have accelerated with that growth, and many residents who moved here expecting lower taxes are finding their bills rising steadily.
Approximately 50% of protests in Wilson County result in a value reduction. The San Antonio metro market provides solid comparable sales data, and properties with condition issues or misclassified land area present particularly strong cases. File before May 15 and come prepared.

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.”

Wilson County is where San Antonio’s growth meets South Texas open country. People moved here for a different pace — not to watch their tax bill climb toward what they were fleeing. The protest process is your mechanism to push back on values that don’t match reality. Look up your value. File your protest. Attend the rate hearings.
