Legal property boundaries for Houston are recorded and maintained by Harris County, TX. Their official parcel viewer shows recorded boundary lines. LotSite does not look up or display legal boundaries: use the county's viewer for those, and use LotSite to measure lawns, driveways, and other areas you can see in satellite imagery.

Whether you're planning a fence, starting a landscaping project, or just want to know your exact lot size, knowing your property lines is the first step. In Houston, the typical residential lot is around 8,500 square feet, but every property is different.
Your county assessor's GIS portal is the official source for recorded property boundaries, and a licensed surveyor costs $300–$800. LotSite is neither: it shows you satellite imagery of your Houston property in under 30 seconds so you can trace and measure what you can see.
Houston is in USDA Hardiness Zone 9a, making Bermuda the go-to for local lawns. Once you know your lot dimensions, use our calculators to figure out exactly how much fertilizer, seed, or mulch you need, no more guessing at the hardware store.
Measure the visible edges of your Houston lot, fences, driveways, and hedges, to plan a fence line. Confirm your legal boundary with the county or a surveyor before you build.
