Carrollton local services

Carrollton was incorporated in 1913, and NCTCOG lists its 2020 Census population as 133,434.

Property tax. Your bill is set from a value made by one of three districts: the Dallas Central Appraisal District, the Denton Central Appraisal District (dentoncad.com) or the Collin Central Appraisal District. DCAD's 2026 deadline for residential protests was May 15, 2026, and it prefers protests filed online through uFile. Filing a homestead exemption with DCAD costs nothing, so skip any mailer that charges to do it.

Courts. In the Dallas County part, civil cases go to the Dallas County District Clerk at 600 Commerce Street, Suite 103. Denton County addresses file with the Denton County District Clerk at 1450 E McKinney Street in Denton. If you're hiring a Carrollton injury lawyer or filing a family case, ask which county's court the case belongs in.

Electricity. The Public Utility Commission's Power to Choose feed for ZIP 75006 lists only Oncor as the delivery company, so residents in that ZIP shop for a retail provider. A ZIP can cross city lines, so enter your own ZIP before you sign a plan.

Questions for City Hall. Carrollton's permit portal, contractor registration rules, watering days, bulk and brush pickup and water supplier all come from the city, so ask before a project starts. When a contractor says a permit is needed, get the permit number in writing.

Flood and mosquitoes. FEMA maps Dallas County flood zones, and any address can be checked on FEMA's Map Service Center. For a lot in a mapped zone, the city's floodplain rules apply before you build or regrade. Dallas County Health and Human Services runs mosquito surveillance and spraying, and Denton County Public Health reported its sixth human West Nile case of 2026 on October 13.
