Environmental Conditions in Sevier County, Arkansas

Radon potential, monitored air quality and current drought status for Sevier County, Arkansas, from the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Drought Monitor.

Radon potential

Zone 3

low radon potential

EPA predicts an average indoor level below 2 pCi/L, so the EPA still recommends testing, because elevated radon can occur anywhere.

Drought status

Exceptional drought in 2.9% of the county

Drought Severity and Coverage Index 402.9 of 500.

  • D3 Extreme drought97.1%
  • D4 Exceptional drought2.9%

Map of 13 October 2026.

Sources: EPA Map of Radon Zones (September 2025), EPA Air Quality Index (2024) and the U.S. Drought Monitor. A radon zone is a regional planning tool, not a prediction for any individual home — the EPA recommends testing every home regardless of zone. Air quality is shown only for counties that host an EPA monitor. Drought figures describe one weekly map, not a long-term climate average. Compare counties in Arkansas.

GIS Data for Sevier County, AR

The Sevier County GIS map on this page loads live federal layers in your browser, so you can check flood zones, terrain, land cover and district boundaries anywhere in Sevier County without a separate GIS login. All of the Sevier GIS data below is drawn from public U.S. government sources.

Layers you can turn on

  • FEMA flood zones

    National Flood Hazard Layer — flood insurance rate map zones and floodways.

    USGS 3DEP terrain, so you can read slope and relief across the county.

  • Land cover

    NLCD land cover classes — forest, developed, wetland and water.

  • School districts

    Census TIGER unified and elementary school district boundaries.

  • ZIP code and county boundaries

    Census TIGER ZCTA and county boundary lines.

Where the data comes from

County boundaries come from the U.S. Census Bureau TIGER/Line program, flood zones from FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer, terrain from the USGS 3D Elevation Program, land cover from the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics Consortium, and demographics from the American Community Survey.

Property records and tax maps in Sevier County

Most people who look up Sevier County GIS data are after parcel-level records: who owns a property, what it last sold for, and what it is assessed at. Those records are kept locally, not federally, so they are not part of this map. Sevier County property and tax map data lives with the county's own records office, and what that office is called varies by state — Texas counties run an appraisal district (usually searched as a “CAD”), Kentucky uses a Property Valuation Administrator (PVA), and most other states use a county assessor, auditor or tax office. Start with that office for a deed, a tax map number or a parcel boundary; use the map above for flood zones, elevation and land cover on the same land.
