Hollywood Heights, Dallas County: property tax data
What the public appraisal record actually shows for this neighborhood — and how to use it if your own home's value looks too high.

What this means for a protest here
About 25% of parcels in Hollywood Heights carry what county data flags as a protest-relevant case — a gap between the appraised value and what comparable nearby properties suggest. Where a reduction did happen, the middle of those reductions landed at 8%, and a quarter of them exceeded 16%. Those figures are anchored to a comparison pool of 1216 properties in and around Hollywood Heights, not a handful of hand-picked comps.
This page merges two Dallas County appraisal-district geo codes — 1DSD17 and 1DSA02 — under one Hollywood Heights label, matching how the area is generally known rather than how the county's internal codes divide it. Both feed the figures shown here.
Per-square-foot pricing also swings sharply across the parcels behind this page: at the low end, recorded values sit near $49 per square foot, well under the figure shown for the neighborhood as a whole. A gap like that is the kind of comparison worth bringing to a protest — it shows part of the range the county has already accepted for homes nearby, not a guess about what any single home is worth.
How filing a protest actually works
Your deadline to file a written protest is whichever comes later: May 15, or the 30th day after your appraisal district delivers your notice of appraised value. There's no single date that applies to everyone — it depends on when your own notice arrives, not a date any page can print in advance.
A protest based on unequal appraisal compares your property against similar, nearby homes in this same neighborhood. LoneStarLower prepares that comparison and the supporting materials; it does not file the protest, negotiate with the appraisal district, or represent you at a hearing. You file it, using Form 50-132 or an equivalent written notice, with your county's appraisal district office — not the Texas Comptroller, which doesn't handle individual protests. You attend the hearing and present the evidence yourself.
Questions about this data
Does every property in Hollywood Heights have grounds for a protest?
No. County data puts a protest-relevant case at about 25% of parcels in Hollywood Heights. Whether a specific address qualifies depends on how its appraised value compares to nearby, similar properties.
How reliable is the reduction data for this neighborhood?
The reduction figures come from 305 recorded cases in the comparison pool, drawn from Dallas County's certified tax roll dated August 1, 2026. That roll was compiled into this page's dataset on August 22, 2026.
Why does this page show two geo codes for one neighborhood?
Dallas County tracks Hollywood Heights internally as two separate geo codes, 1DSD17 and 1DSA02. This page combines both under a single, more recognizable neighborhood name; the underlying figures still come from the county's own parcel records for both codes.
