Talty is a Kaufman County city at the Interstate 20 and FM 1641 area between Forney and Terrell. The community was earlier known as Layden Ridge and incorporated in 1999\. Its own municipal records remain important even where an address uses a Forney mailing designation.

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

- Verify Talty city limits before applying Forney development rules to the property.
- Review current road-access information and recorded subdivision restrictions for the exact lot.
- 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).
