Due to the recent Notice of Assessments that were mailed out on May 20, 2020, The Walker County Assessor's Office will be resuming work outside of the office. We are currently receiving appeals on property values and we will begin reviewing these properties as soon as possible. For any that are apprehensive about having on-site visits to your property, we would like for you to know that we have been provided the proper PPE (i.e. masks, gloves, etc.) to insure the safety of the occupant and field staff.
Please note that if we have a phone number on file, we will attempt to call you and allow you to prepare for an on-site visit.
If we make contact, we will ask if you wish for us to knock on the door or begin conducting our inspection when we arrive.
If we knock on the door, we will step away from the door and attempt to prevent close contact with the occupant.
At our arrival, we will adequately identify ourselves by showing you our Walker County Assessor's Office Identification Card. We will not attempt to pass you a business card or shake hands for safety reasons.

Our office is open to the public from 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday.
The goal of the Walker County Assessors Office is to provide the public with a web site that is easy to use. You can search our site for a wealth of information on any property in Walker County.
