Pampa, Texas

Pampa is a city in Gray County on the flat, wind-swept High Plains of the Texas Panhandle, about 56 miles northeast of Amarillo. Its name comes from the pampas grasslands, and the town grew during the Panhandle oil and gas boom of the early twentieth century that still anchors much of the local economy. Pampa is also known as the place where folk musician Woody Guthrie lived through the Dust Bowl years, learning to play guitar and writing some of his earliest songs.

Property here runs through the Gray 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 Gray County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
