Houck and Apache County
Houck is associated with Apache County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
Houck by land and water
The Census records 0.02 square miles of water within Houck, or 0.1% of its total area. It is 0.1 percentage points lower than the 0.2% recorded for Apache County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
