Dallas, Texas: flood risk, agents and movers

Flood risk

Across the 7 Dallas neighborhoods FloodFireCheck has a page for, 29.2% of the ground is in FEMA high-risk flood zones, from 0% to 50.3% by neighborhood.

Flood insurance (NFIP) claims on record since 1979 run from 16 to 35 per neighborhood, the most in Highland.

These are the neighborhoods with a page, not the whole city. Claims are counted from the Census block groups around each neighborhood, so neighbors can share them. Past claims do not predict future flooding.

Licensed real estate agents

17,181 real estate licenses are active in Dallas County, by the Texas Real Estate Commission's file (our copy of 1 November 2026).

Texas records a county for each license, not a city, so this is all of Dallas County, where most of Dallas is. A count of licenses, not a recommendation of anyone on it.

Movers

37 of 380 household-goods movers registered with FMCSA in Dallas are cleared: active authority and liability insurance on file (1 November 2026).

That is the federal register, for moves that cross a state line. A move that stays inside Texas also needs a TxDMV number. A cleared filing is not a recommendation.

Property tax

There is no single property tax rate for Dallas. A home's bill adds up the rates of each taxing unit it sits in: the county, the city, the school district and any special districts. The county appraisal district lists them for an address.
