Is Newark in Tarrant or Wise County?

Newark sits primarily in Wise County, with a small portion extending into Tarrant County on the city's southeast side. Most of Newark's residents are in Wise County and are served by Wise County's sheriff and tax assessor, but ISD zoning (Northwest ISD) crosses county lines. Property taxes route through whichever county a parcel sits in — Wise County Appraisal District for Wise parcels, Tarrant Appraisal District for Tarrant parcels. Sources: City of Newark (cityofnewarktx.com); Wise County Appraisal District; Tarrant Appraisal District.
