Two Offices Handle Property Taxes in Dimmit County

Dimmit County Money & Taxes

The Dimmit County Appraisal District sets the value of your property. It is at 203 W. Houston St. in Carrizo Springs. The phone is 830-876-3420 and the website is dimmit-cad.org. Seven taxing units use these values, including the county, Carrizo Springs ISD, and the cities of Asherton, Big Wells, and Carrizo Springs.

A separate Tax Assessor-Collector office handles billing and payments. It is at 212 N. 4th St. in Carrizo Springs, phone 830-876-9904. If you think your property is overvalued, you protest with the appraisal district, not the tax office. Check the Texas Comptroller county directory to confirm current contact info.
