    What these endpoints answer

    Field by field, whether any endpoint we index for Madison County answers it, and the evidence for each. We only call a field restricted when there is a stated reason we can cite. Everything else here is a fact about the services we index, not a claim about the law.

Owner names are not published on this layer, so owner_name is recorded as not published. A Parcels_2024 MapServer on the same host also exists and is not used. No terms are published.

    Using this endpoint

    What Madison County publishes

    Madison County's Parcels layer exposes a parcel identifier (Parcel ID). Use it for PIN-keyed record pulls (owner-name search lives on a separate assessor system). 1 of 4 listed fields accept queries; the rest are returned on read but not indexed for search. Served as an ArcGIS MapServer layer, which supports query operations but not write operations; last verified 2026-10-09.

    Two paths from URL to result

    1. Open in Parcel Lookup: click the button on the endpoint card. The lookup tool loads the layer, auto-detects fields, and gives you a search box. No code, no API keys, just a browser.
    2. Query directly: append /query?where=…&outFields=*&f=jsonto the URL. The sample query above is a working example you can paste into a browser tab to see the raw JSON response.

    Why field names vary by county

    Counties publish parcel data through their own ArcGIS Server installations, each with its own schema. One county uses APN, another uses PIN, a third uses PARCEL_ID. Some expose owner names; others keep them on a separate assessor's portal. The searchable fields list above reflects what Madison County actually publishes, not what you might expect from a national standard (there isn't one).

    What to do with the results

    • Generate a public-notice mailing list: pipe the parcel layer URL into Radius Notice to buffer around an address and select neighboring owners.
    • Print Avery 5160 labels: export the result CSV and drop it into CSV → Labels.
    • Pull individual parcel records: use Parcel Lookup directly to grab zoning, assessed value, and ownership for one property at a time.

    Quick FAQs

    Can I query Madison County's parcel layer from my own web app?

    arcserver.madisoncountyky.us serves Madison County, Kentucky parcels over public ArcGIS REST, but, like most county servers, it may not send the CORS headers a browser needs for a cross-origin fetch. If a direct browser call fails, the layer still works from curl, Postman, or a server-side script; the UrbanKit parcel lookup tool proxies the request, so a search that succeeds there confirms the layer is genuinely public.

    Is the Madison County endpoint still current?

    We last verified Madison County's MapServer layer on 2026-10-09. County GIS teams move services without notice, so if you hit a fresh 404, tell us and we'll re-check. Atlas entries are re-verified on a rolling basis.

    Is there a rate limit on Madison County parcel queries?

    Madison County's layer is hosted by the county on arcserver.madisoncountyky.us. Public ArcGIS endpoints rarely rate-limit individual reads, but arcserver.madisoncountyky.us can throttle heavy automated traffic at the host level. Page through results with resultOffset / resultRecordCount and request only the fields you need. There's no API key and no charge from the county.
