McLennan County Appraisal District Chief Appraiser Summary - 2023

In 2023, McLennan County paid its chief appraiser $129,000 in salary and benefits. To determine property values across the county each year, appraisers rely on a process called mass appraisal. This method enables a small team to assign values to thousands of properties, but due to the sheer volume and generalizations involved, property owners often have valid reasons to challenge their assessments.

As a result, McLennan County saw thousands of property tax protests filed in 2023. With such a high volume of appeals, it’s unrealistic to expect the Appraisal Review Board (ARB) to manage every case through formal hearings. Instead, most disputes are resolved through informal settlements, which save both time and cost.
