Jessica HassanAn Anderson home search involves two different scales: the incorporated town and the individual property. This profile separates the town’s dated population and housing estimates from the parcel records needed to investigate a home.
Map sources and notes
What area does this Anderson profile cover?
Anderson is an incorporated town in Lauderdale County. The map uses the 2024 Census place boundary, GEOID 0101756. The estimates below refer to that defined geography, rather than every address that may use the same community name.
Treat the outline as a dated geographic reference, not a current parcel survey, school-attendance boundary or utility service map. Town identity and county property administration are different layers: a county record can help identify a parcel, but it does not settle every municipal or provider question.
Where can I start researching an Anderson property?
The Alabama Department of Revenue county-office directory provides the appropriate county route. Lauderdale’s online appraisal and assessment search is linked in the directory; the revenue office is 256-760-5785.
Start with the parcel identifier and compare it with the home being considered. A tax or appraisal record serves a different purpose from a boundary survey, project permit, school assignment or utility account. Keep the parcel details with the question when contacting the responsible office rather than relying on the town name alone.
The Lauderdale County guide connects property-record research with flood-map and building questions, keeping those decisions separate from a home’s river view.
Turn the area information into a home-search next step
Use the map to orient yourself and the facts to understand the limits of the statistical picture. Then compare actual homes by their condition, access, documented services and the destinations you use. Those property-level facts—not a small difference between uncertain estimates—should drive the shortlist.
Explore the Anderson area home search. This map-based search may extend beyond the town boundary; it does not guarantee a complete inventory or establish service eligibility.

Value and margin retained from the independently reviewed Census profile for this exact geography; this import did not newly retrieve the original raw API response. Vacant does not mean advertised for sale or rent. Median owner-occupied home value U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimate. Universe: Owner-occupied housing units. Unit: USD. Survey-reported value of owner-occupied homes, not current listings, appraisals or sale prices. Published 90% margin of error: +/-106896 USD. Median gross rent U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimate. Universe: Renter-occupied housing units paying cash rent. Unit: USD/month. Gross rent includes contract rent and applicable tenant-paid utilities and fuels; not current advertised rents. Published 90% margin of error: +/-205 USD/month. Owner costs with mortgage U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimate. Universe: Owner-occupied housing units with a mortgage. Unit: USD/month.

Median selected monthly owner costs include applicable taxes, insurance, utilities, fuels and fees. Published 90% margin of error: +/-19 USD/month. Renters spending 30%+ on housing U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimate. Universe: Cash-rent renter households with gross rent as a percentage of income computed. Unit: percent. Calculated share with gross rent at least 30% of household income. Excludes households whose percentage cannot be computed. Derived margin of error is unavailable; no unrelated margin is substituted. Formula: 100*(B25070_007E+B25070_008E+B25070_009E+B25070_010E)/(B25070_001E-B25070_011E). Numerator: 0; denominator: 16. Mean commute U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year Data Profile DP03_0025E. Mean one-way travel time to work, in minutes; workers age 16 and over who did not work from home. Retained accepted source run profile-31190; source SHA256 097b9dc1979c94ef809352561e32e389771b032607396d637bc4de7c701f8dea, line 15. This reuses accepted source evidence, not a new API fetch. Published 90% margin of error: +/-6.1 minutes. Survey travel time is not a current traffic estimate or a route to a named employer. The notes above identify the source and period separately for each current measure. The explanation below retains useful context from the previous ACS 2020-2024 profile. Any ACS population values mentioned below refer to that survey series, and are distinct from Population Estimates Program figures where those newer estimates are available above. The 2024 American Community Survey five-year estimates combine 2020–2024. They are not a current headcount or forecast. Each margin of error below is the published 90% margin for that specific estimate. The renter-occupied estimate is 17 units with a margin of error of 16. The population estimate, 410, has a margin of error of 212. Neither supports a precise description of today’s household mix or a claim that a particular kind of home will be easy to find. Occupied and vacant units divide estimated housing stock; owner-occupied and renter-occupied units divide occupied housing. “Vacant” does not mean listed for sale or available to rent. Use these estimates as dated context, not a ranking of communities or a conclusion about affordability, suitability or investment performance. The Census accuracy guide explains sampling uncertainty and the 90% confidence level. No percentages or combined margins are calculated here. Geography follows the 2024 Census geography definitions. Population: 2024 ACS five-year profile DP05; housing: profile DP04. Period: 2020–2024. This is a geographic, statistical and property-record starting point, not a current directory of facility hours or local service availability.Anderson Facts

How can you check water arrangements for an Anderson property?
East Lauderdale Water Authority describes its service area as eastern Lauderdale County and says opening an account requires a deposit and connection fee. Its customer-service office is at 2943 Alabama 101 in Rogersville, with telephone 256-247-1606. Give the authority the specific property address to establish whether it is the provider and what connection arrangements apply. The regional service description does not establish coverage, an available meter or sewer service for every Anderson home.
