Powell is an incorporated Navarro County community on State Highway 31 and FM 653 east of Corsicana. Railroad development and the early Powell oilfield are part of its local history. The highway corridor connects the community with the surrounding county, while individual parcels may have different access and utility arrangements.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Confirm city limits and the office responsible for the proposed improvement.
- Check recorded access and utility availability for the actual lot rather than assuming the highway corridor is uniformly serviced.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
