The boundaries were drawn from 1:24,000-scale USGS topographic maps in 1978 and coincide with county magisterial districts as of July 1, 1973. Unlike magisterial districts that are realigned every ten years following the census, the tax district boundary does not follow equal representation requirements. Purpose: This data set provides statewide tax district boundary data at the highest spatial accuracy available for this extent. Supplemental_Information: Corporation Tax Boundaries: Tax boundaries that correspond to incorporated municipality boundaries. Assessment Tax Boundaries: Unlike the official tax district boundaries derived from county magisterial districts in 1978, an "assessment tax boundary" changes over time and can consist of individual tax parcels that lie in more than one tax district or county. Likewise, coal parcels that define mineral districts can form mineral assessment tax boundaries that don't align with the official tax district boundaries.

In 1996 the West Virginia Department of Tax and Revenue, Property Tax Division, converted the 1978 source maps into a digital format and added descriptive attributes for each tax district. In October of 2003, the WV GIS Technical Center appended 24K DLG boundary files and lines drawn from 24K DRGs into a statewide 24K Tax District Boundary dataset.
