How do I know if a property is within the Dayton city limits?
The Montgomery County Auditor maintains records of property, including ownership and the tax district (city or township). Select the parcel for that address and look for the tax district name. If it is “Dayton City”, the property is in Dayton. If a parcel number starts with an “R72,” such as “R72 00101 0036,” that is also a confirmation. You may also call the Engineering Department at 937-333-7217 to confirm that a property is in the City of Dayton. Search for your property on the Auditor's website.
