Millsap, Texas
Millsap is a small town in Parker County, in the rolling ranch and prairie country of North Texas roughly 40 miles west of Fort Worth. It sits west of Weatherford along the corridor that carries U.S. Highway 180 and Interstate 20 traffic between the Metroplex and the plains beyond, in an area long associated with cattle ranching and rural landholdings.
Property here runs through the Parker 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 Parker County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
