Matagorda County is asking that all properties be marked with your 911 address based on your property location. To obtain your 911 address, call Rebecca at 979.244.6801, and she will advise you of the correct address. 

 

Your address should be visible during the day and night. Please remove any old address, usually showing your lot number, to avoid any confusion. By using only the 911 address system, emergency vehicles stand a better chance of finding your property, should the occasion arise.
