Plantersville, Texas
Plantersville is a rural community in Grimes County, set in the gently wooded countryside on the western edge of the Houston region, about 27 miles northwest of The Woodlands. It sits in a quiet pine-and-pasture landscape of small farms and open country between the Houston metro and the Brazos Valley.
Property here runs through the Grimes 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 Grimes County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
