911 Address Practical

Two Livable Structures Need Two Montgomery County Addresses

Two homes on one property do not share one 911 address. Montgomery County's permit FAQ says each livable structure needs its own address from MCECD, the county's addressing authority. A map pin is not a substitute; MCECD warns that third-party maps often estimate an address and can be wrong.

Use MCECD's New Address Request when the residence or property has no assigned address. Use Address Verification when you think an address is already in the district's records. Addressing questions go to [email protected]. The office is at 150 Hilbig Road in Conroe and can be reached at 936-523-5911.

Mail and map records take separate steps. For mail, ask the local post office to add the new address to USPS records. MCECD does not send data to Google or other mapping apps, so report a bad pin to the map provider.
