Harris County only, valued from a Houston office
La Porte's place record lists Harris County and stops. Chambers County is not on it. Galveston County is not on it. Harris Central Appraisal District is the office, and the Comptroller's Harris County directory gives the street as 13013 Northwest Frwy., Houston, TX 77040. The district building is in Houston. La Porte does not have a separate county appraisal district of its own, because it is not a separate county. The city and the county are different lines on the same notice.
Pasadena and Deer Park are other Harris County cities with their own pages and their own ZIP math. A La Porte notice should say La Porte in the city field. If it says one of those neighbors, use their page. The Houston metro page is the index for places that still have no URL. The Houston page is the city of Houston, including the neighborhood around the appraisal district's freeway address, not the ship-channel suburb on this page.
77571 holds the city and is only half inside it
This is the awkward ZIP on the Houston list. About 99.3 percent of La Porte's land sits in ZCTA 77571. About 49.8 percent of that ZCTA's land sits inside La Porte. The city is inside the ZIP. The ZIP is not mostly inside the city. Half of 77571, a hair under, is somewhere else. This page still lists 77571 because it is the ZCTA that holds the city, and there is no second ZCTA that clears halfway. Leaving it off would pretend La Porte had no ZIP at all.
Do not read 49.8 percent as "your house is a coin flip." If the account says La Porte and Harris County, the house is in the city regardless of how the rest of the ZCTA is split. The other half of 77571 is not automatically Deer Park. Deer Park's own overlap with 77571 is a thin slice of that ZCTA and is discussed on the Deer Park page, not here as if it explained the remainder. Anything the file does not assign, this page does not name.
Harris County and the city field, not the ZIP alone
Send the notice. We are looking for Harris County and the city name La Porte, plus the legal description. 77571 on a mailbox is not enough, because half that ZCTA is outside the city. If the city field names Deer Park or Pasadena, those pages exist. If it names Houston, use Houston's page. A ship-channel mailing habit is not a city limit. Half of 77571 sitting outside La Porte is a land-share fact from the ZCTA file, not a guess about your lot. If the account names La Porte and Harris County, the house is in the city even though the ZIP is only about half inside the limits. Bring that account, not a screenshot of the mailbox.
You can sell as-is, without repairs. We pay all closing costs, and we can close in 7–14 days when title is clear. There is no agent commission. La Porte stays off the Houston page. The Houston metro page is where a place without a page, including the census designated places in this metro, is still just a county.
