Albany County, New York, tax parcel boundaries with limited property information.A tax map is a special purpose map, accurately drawn to scale showing all the real property parcels within a city, town or village. These maps are used to locate parcels and obtain other information required in assessment work. The size, shape and dimensions (or acreage) of a parcel may be found on a tax map. Tax maps are primarily used by local governments to maintain a current inventory of all parcels in a city, town or village.Tax parcel boundaries are maintained by the Albany County Real Property Tax Service Agency. Albany County provides the municipalities with digital GIS files on an annual basis. Therefore, all parcel boundary changes may not be reflected in this GIS file, depending on the revision date.Real Property Information, as recorded and managed by the local municipal assessor is updated annually using the final roll taxable status date March 1 by the County and also may not be reflecting the most current information, depending on the information revision date.

Municipality boundaries for Albany County, NY. These boundaries do not change to often. Annexations occasionally happen that go through the Real Property Tax Service Agency who work with Planning to update the GIS data.9/2023: Voorheesville/New Scotland boundary update.

In August of 2023 the County created a county wide zoning layer. This was done with the help of all of the municipalities. Although all of the municipalities had zoning maps, not all of them had the GIS data that was created for those maps. Many of the municipalities contracted out the map development. The GIS layer for some of the municipalities was not easy to obtain. In these cases, the municipalities static zoning map was used to create the GIS layer. NOTE: This is a generalized map. For precise details and dimensions see the maps adopted by the municipality board and on file in the office of the municipality clerk.

Albany County fire district boundaries. These boundaries are created based on tax parcel assessment roll information indicating their assigned district. Please note that some fire departments are a division of the city or village in which they are located in. As they are part of their municipal government they are not represented on this layer. A fire district is a designated geographic area that is served by a specific fire department or firefighting organization. It is a form of local government or special district that is responsible for providing fire protection and emergency response services within its boundaries.

Publication Date: April 2025 2024 Parcel Data. Updated annually, or as needed. The data can be downloaded here: https://gis.ny.gov/parcels#data-download. This feature service has two layers: 1) NYS Tax Parcels Public, and 2) NYS Tax Parcels Public Footprint which contains polygons representing counties for which tax parcel polygons are available in the NYS Tax Parcels Public layer. County footprint polygons display when zoomed out beyond 1:37,050-scale. Tax parcel polygons display when zoomed in below 1:37,051-scale. The NYS Tax Parcels Public layer contains 2024 parcel data only for NY State counties which gave NYS ITS Geospatial Services permission to share this data with the public. Work to obtain parcel data from additional counties, as well as permission to share the data, is ongoing. To date, 36 counties have provided Geospatial Services permission to share their parcel data with the public. Parcel data for counties which do not allow Geospatial Services to redistribute their data must be obtained directly from those counties. Geospatial Services' goal is to eventually include parcel data for all counties in New York State. Parcel geometry was incorporated as received from County Real Property Departments. No attempt was made to edge-match parcels along adjacent counties. County attribute values were populated using 2024 Assessment Roll tabular data the NYS ITS Geospatial Services obtained from the NYS Department of Tax and Finance’s Office of Real Property Tax Services (ORPTS). Tabular assessment data was joined to the county provided parcel geometry using the SWIS & SBL or SWIS & PRINT KEY unique identifier for each parcel. Detailed information about assessment attributes can be found in the ORPTS Assessor’s Manuals available here: https://www.tax.ny.gov/research/property/assess/manuals/assersmanual.htm. New York City data comes from NYC MapPluto which can be found here: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/planning/data-maps/open-data/dwn-pluto-mappluto.page. Thanks to the following counties that specifically authorized Geospatial Services to share their GIS tax parcel data with the public: Albany, Cayuga, Chautauqua, Cortland, Erie, Genesee, Greene, Hamilton, Lewis, Livingston, Montgomery, NYC- Bronx, NYC- Kings (Brooklyn), NYC- New York (Manhattan), NYC- Queens, NYC- Richmond (Staten Island), Oneida, Onondaga, Ontario, Orange, Oswego, Otsego, Putnam, Rensselaer, Rockland, Schuyler, St Lawrence, Steuben, Suffolk, Sullivan, Tioga, Tompkins, Ulster, Warren, Wayne, and Westchester.

The limitations and accuracy level of the data should be accounted for before using them in any analyses and their validity cannot be guaranteed.Parcel boundary data was acquired by county offices. Individual County and Town files were compiled to create a seamless coverage of Tax Parcels. Areas of overlap were eliminated by clipping to adjacent county boundaries. Attribute information of interest, property class code, residential development from 1945 to present (year built), sewer service code, and water service codes were obtained from the New York Office of Real Property Services (ORPS, accessed in November 2011). Parcel boundaries and attribute information from ORPS were joined based on the municipality code and print key.Source Information:Albany: Albany County Real Property Tax Services. 2010 Albany County, NY parcel boundaries derived from AutoCAD MAP 3D tax maps; Delaware: Delaware County Planning Department.

Housing Demographics in the 2010 CensusThis feature layer contains demographics about housing as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau (USCB) in the 2010 U.S. Census. These attributes cover topics such as owner status of housing units (vacant, owner, renter), count of residents per housing unit, and housing unit by householder age. A small subset of attributes from the 2000 Census are also included as reference.Per the Census, "Also known as the Population and Housing Census, the Decennial U.S. Census is designed to count every resident in the United States. It is mandated by Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and takes place every 10 years. The data collected by the decennial census determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities."Four layers are available: state, county, census tract, and census block group. Each layer contains the same set of demographic attributes. Each geography level has a viewing range optimal for the geography size, and the map has increasing detail as you zoom in to smaller areas. Only one geography is in view at any time.Housing Demographics 2010 CensusData currency: 2010Data modification: NoneData source: Explore Census DataFor more information: Households and Families: 2010For feedback, please contact: ArcGIScomNationalMaps@esri.comData Processing notes:State and county boundaries are simplified representations offered from the Census Bureau's 2010 MAF/TIGER databaseTract and block group boundaries are 2010 TIGER boundaries with select water area boundaries erased (coastlines and major water bodies)Field names and aliases are processed by Esri as created for the ArcGIS Platform.For a list of fields and alias names, access the following excel document.U.S. Census BureauPer USCB, "the Census Bureau is the federal government’s largest statistical agency.

A vector polygon layer of all county boundaries in New York State. The source data was originally a compilation of U.S. Geological Survey 1:100,000-scale digital vector files and NYS Department of Transportation 1:24,000-scale and 1:75,000-scale digital vector files. Boundaries were revised to 1:24,000-scale positional accuracy and selectively updated based on court decisions. Currently, boundary changes are made as needed based on authoritative sources.
