Data Files
The following data is available for download via a
web interface
that allows you to access files on the FTP server using a standards-compliant web browser. You can also click on the headings below to directly access that FTP folder via the web interface. Please review the
FTP Help File for schema information and general use instructions.
Please note that an FTP client that supports Transport Layer Security (TLS) is now required to directly access the FTP site ftp.polkpa.org. Please see Accessing Polk County Property Appraiser FTP Resources for additional information.
The Florida Public Records Exemptions Statute, FS 119.071, has been amended as it relates to the publicly available records maintained by the county property appraiser and tax collector. As a result, exempt (aka confidential) parcels and accounts have been added back to our website and FTP data files. No owner names or Official Records books and pages of recorded documents related to these parcels/accounts, will appear on the Property Appraiser’s website or in FTP data files. In addition, the Polk County Property Appraiser mapping site has been modified to accommodate the statutory change.
See Senate Bill 781, which takes effect on July 1, 2021, for additional information.
The Appraisal Data consists of files
that contain the assessment data associated with parcels. It includes owner, sales, & property value information. The files are in text format (.txt) and zipped to reduce their size.

The Tangible Data consists of files that contain the assessment data associated with all tangible accounts. It includes, owner, account details, & account value information. The files are in text format (.txt) and zipped to reduce their size. They can be imported into Microsoft Access or a similar database program. The intended purpose of the Tangible Data is to provide users the ability to create customized queries and reports (example: mail labels or sales reports). These files are updated daily.

GIS. These zipped files are provided in ESRI shapefile format. This data is
