Getting to know Palmer

Palmer is an Ellis County community on the Interstate 45 corridor northeast of Waxahachie. Its settlement grew after the railway arrived in 1872, developing as a shipping point for local cotton and grain. The town’s municipal website is the current starting point for city services and local government records.

Check at the address, not the town name

  • Check the incorporated boundary before applying municipal information to nearby rural parcels.
  • Verify the building’s recorded improvements and the available water and wastewater connections.
  • School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
