Is Mansfield in Tarrant or Johnson County?

Mansfield is primarily in Tarrant County but straddles three counties — Tarrant (majority), Johnson, and Ellis — because the city's ETJ and annexed footprint extend southward across county lines. The Tarrant County portion holds City Hall (1200 E Broad St). Property tax bills, voter rolls, and county-level services route through whichever county a specific parcel sits in — Tarrant residents file homestead exemptions with the Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD), Johnson residents with the Johnson County Central Appraisal District. Sources: City of Mansfield (mansfieldtexas.gov); Tarrant Appraisal District; U.S. Census Bureau city boundary file.
