What Palm Beach County publishes about property, where to get each source, and when each was last checked. 5 of 6 sources have a dated check on record; the rest are marked "Not yet verified", which means nobody has confirmed them either way.
Openness score
80 of 100
Openness 80 of 100, from 5 of 6 sources checked.
A source that has not been verified earns nothing until it is, so a low score means open sources are not confirmed yet. It does not mean a county withholds anything. How the score is computed.

Parcel layer (property appraiser data)
Published
Checked September 22, 2026
A queryable parcel layer for Palm Beach County is published online. A check on September 22, 2026 read its service description and one record, and every field name listed below resolved.
- To use it, add the address below as an ArcGIS REST Server connection in QGIS or ArcGIS, or call its query endpoint directly.
- Field names are listed exactly as the layer spells them; what a field holds (a full date or a year, acres or square feet) is the layer's to define, so read its description before relying on one.
- It returns parcel boundaries as polygons.
- The service returns at most 2,000 records per request, so page through larger pulls with an offset.
- A second parcel source for the county also answered a check; the address is listed below.
- Parcel layer: Palm Beach County parcels (ArcGIS Online mirror of the DOR roll): https://services.arcgis.com/B7X7NCOKKXditlwZ/arcgis/rest/services/Palm_Beach_County_Parcels/FeatureServer/0

Assessment roll file (download)
Published
Checked September 22, 2026
The Florida Department of Revenue posts the Palm Beach County assessment roll (owner names and addresses, legal descriptions, land-use codes and values) as a free zipped CSV file. The 2026 preliminary file read on September 22, 2026 held 657,490 parcel rows.
- Find the county's file inside the portal's NAL folder for the roll year by its FDOR county number, 60: in the final-roll folder (2026F) once the county has posted its final roll, otherwise in the preliminary-roll folder (2026P). File names are typed by hand and vary by county and year, so look for the number rather than the spelling.
- Florida Department of Revenue Property Tax Data Portal: https://floridarevenue.com/property/dataportal/Pages/default.aspx
Update cadence: Once a year per roll. The preliminary roll is posted around June or July and the final roll in the fall; counties re-upload corrected files for months afterward. (read October 31, 2026).
