https://gis.lickingcounty.gov/server/rest/services/Auditor/Parcels/MapServer/0Field by field, whether any endpoint we index for Licking 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.

Licking County, Ohio (FIPS 39089; county seat Newark). Served by the county's own ArcGIS Server (gis.lickingcounty.gov): Auditor/Parcels MapServer layer 0, "Parcels", 83,782 rows with the auditor's owner, address, value, transfer and land-use columns on the parcel polygons. Informational only and not a legal record: verify with the Licking County Auditor. The service is live: read on 2026-10-17, its latest T1Date (the most recent transfer) was 2026-10-15. Verified 2026-10-17: the layer extent is 82.78 to 82.18 W and 39.91 to 40.28 N, and 232 parcels intersect a 0.006-degree box at Newark (a point on a street returns none, because parcels do not cover the right of way). Share of rows filled, read 2026-10-17: Parcel 98.6%, OwnerName 98.6%, SiteAddress 98.6%, SitePostalCity 98.5%, SitePostalZip 98.5%, OwnerAddress 98.3% (99.7% of those start with a house number or a PO Box), OwnerCity 98.3%, OwnerState 98.3%, OwnerZip 98.3%, Municipality 54.6%, Township 57.5%, TaxAcres above zero 93.9%, Landuse 98.6%, Class 98.6%, MarketTotalValue above zero 97.6%, NetTotalValue above zero 95.2%, YearBuilt 74.3%, T1Date 88.2%, T1SaleAmount above zero 52.8%. 1,189 rows are shapes with no auditor record (no parcel number, owner or address). Every parcel number is unique. SitePostalCity holds NEWARK on 30,556 rows, PATASKALA on 10,804, JOHNSTOWN on 6,224 and GRANVILLE on 5,965, and OwnerState holds OH on 79,421 rows and CA on 655. The layer also carries OwnerCareOf and OwnerAttention, the two earlier transfers (T2, T3) and the full valuation columns; the atlas lists the fields above. The layer pages and declares maxRecordCount 2000; the parcel-number sample answered in 0.1 s. CORS: on 2026-10-17 the server echoed the request Origin on the layer and on /query (urbankitstudio.com, www.urbankitstudio.com and an unrelated origin all got their own value back); an earlier probe the same day by another reader found no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header. The county's old host apps.lickingcounty.gov does not answer. License: unknown. The county publishes no license text on the service. Its GIS downloads page (the licenseUrl) carries a disclaimer: "The maps and associated data, being made available to you, are for reference purposes only and are not intended to represent an official land survey or description of any property identified", and "Suitability of this data for your use is not guaranteed and the user assumes all risk for such use." It states no limit on redistribution, commercial use or fees.

Licking County's Parcels layer exposes a parcel identifier (Parcel Number), owner names (Owner Name), and address fields (Site Address). Use it for owner-name lookups and address-based parcel searches. 3 of 19 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 2026-10-17.
/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.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 Licking County actually publishes, not what you might expect from a national standard (there isn't one).

gis.lickingcounty.gov serves Licking County, Ohio 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.
We last verified Licking County's MapServer layer on 2026-10-17. 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.
Licking County's layer is hosted by the county on gis.lickingcounty.gov. Public ArcGIS endpoints rarely rate-limit individual reads, but gis.lickingcounty.gov 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.
