Krugerville, Texas
Krugerville is a small city in northeastern Denton County, in the North Texas prairie country of the Dallas-Fort Worth region. It lies near the city of Denton, roughly 13 miles west of Frisco, in an area that has shifted over time from farmland toward the outer suburban edge of the metroplex. The city sits along the U.S. Highway 377 corridor that runs through this part of the county.
Property here runs through the Denton 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 Denton County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
