Savoy, Texas
Set in the blackland farm country of Fannin County in North Texas, Savoy is a small city roughly 32 miles northeast of McKinney and about 45 miles from Plano. The surrounding land is gently rolling prairie given over to row crops and pasture, part of the fertile Blackland belt that runs across this stretch of the state.
Property here runs through the Fannin 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 Fannin County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
