Lookup contract

Use the same civic journey in a bookmarkable form.

/lookup keeps the resolver portable for integrations, bookmarks, and shared links. Pass ?q= or ?query= and the address-first experience still lands in the same profiles.

Start with your address

Enter a Texas street address — you will land on your block view (identity chips, this week, representatives, meetings) with honest coverage notes, then you can open county, city, or ISD profiles.

Texas-only resolver. County routing is the reliable first-class public path today. ISD and special-district cards are best-effort index resolution (not full boundary assignment). Need a bookmarkable query contract? Use `/lookup`.

Resolve the place

We geocode a Texas street address, find the county FIPS, and keep the county profile as the reliable first destination.

Choose the right profile

When the shared entity index has a matching city, you can open city or county. When it does not, the county remains the honest baseline.

Move into the platform

Once you land on a profile, you can keep going into documents, money, search, and the rest of the broader CivicData stack.

Examples

Start from a familiar place, then move deeper.

Harris County for the county scorecard, documents, and money tab.
/county/48201 to preserve the legacy county redirect contract.
/lookup?q= for bookmarked integrations and prefilled search flows.

Contract

Same civic journey, explicit limits.

This route is the same resolver as /address; the only difference is that it supports prefilled query params for integrations and durable links.
