Brownfield, Texas

Brownfield is a city on the flat, semiarid High Plains of Terry County, about 37 miles southwest of Lubbock. The surrounding country is open farmland that has long been a major cotton-producing area, and Terry County sits within the oil-bearing northern Permian Basin, giving the local economy a mix of agriculture and petroleum. In recent decades the county has also become one of the leading grape-growing areas in Texas, with vineyards spreading across the plains alongside its cotton and peanut fields.

Property here runs through the Terry Central Appraisal District and the county tax office — the homestead exemption, the appraisal cap, protests, and any MUD, PID, or special districts all sit at the parcel level. The Terry County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
