Warner Robins Directory Quick Facts
Warner Robins Records Through Houston County
Warner Robins is the largest city in Houston County. But in Georgia, the county is where public records live. The Houston County Superior Court Clerk keeps court case files, property deeds, liens, and other land records for Warner Robins and every other town in the county. This is how most of Georgia works. Cities do not run their own court systems for civil and criminal cases at the Superior Court level. So if you need to look up a person in the Warner Robins residents directory through court or property records, Houston County is where you start.
The Houston County Courthouse is in Perry, which is the county seat. Warner Robins has its own city hall at 700 Watson Boulevard, Warner Robins, GA 31093. You can reach city hall at (478) 929-1000. But for court records, deed searches, and most public filings, you will deal with Houston County offices in Perry. The county clerk handles all real estate filings, civil case records, criminal case records, and jury management for the Warner Robins area.
Georgia law at O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-70 says the state has a strong public policy in favor of open government. This means most records held by Houston County offices are open for you to inspect and copy. The law applies to all local agencies in Warner Robins too. You have a legal right to ask for records, and the agency must respond within three business days. Paper copies cost $0.10 per page. The first 15 minutes of search time are free.
Warner Robins Police Records Search
The Warner Robins Police Department is one of the best local sources for the residents directory. The department runs a Records Request system on its website at wrga.gov where you can get courtesy copies of police reports. This is a useful tool if you need an accident report, an incident report, or other law enforcement records from Warner Robins.
The Police to Citizen portal, known as P2C, is the main search tool for Warner Robins police data. It lets you look up recent arrests, traffic accidents, and other calls for service. The P2C system pulls from the same data the department uses internally. You can search by name, date, or location. This is a free tool. It does not cost anything to run a basic search through the Warner Robins P2C portal. The police department phone number is (478) 293-1000 if you need to call for help with a records request.
Keep in mind that the P2C portal shows recent activity. Older records may not appear in the online system. If you need a report from more than a few months back, you may have to file a formal open records request with the Warner Robins Police Department. Under O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-71, they must respond within three business days. Some records may be withheld if they are part of an active investigation, but the law says exemptions should be read narrowly in Georgia.
Note: Courtesy copies from Warner Robins police are not certified records and may not be accepted by courts or other agencies.
Court Records in Warner Robins
For court case lookups in the Warner Robins residents directory, the Georgia Courts eAccess portal is the statewide tool. This system lets you search civil and criminal case records from Superior Courts across Georgia, including Houston County cases that involve Warner Robins residents. You can search by party name, case number, or date range. The portal is free to use for basic lookups.
Warner Robins also has a Municipal Court that handles city code violations, traffic tickets, and minor offenses within the city limits. This court is separate from the Houston County Superior Court. Municipal Court records may not show up in the statewide eAccess system. For those, you would need to contact the Warner Robins Municipal Court directly. The city website at wrga.gov has contact details for the court.
Houston County cases filed in Superior Court cover more serious matters. These include felony charges, civil lawsuits, divorce filings, and property disputes. The Houston County Clerk of Superior Court keeps these records. Under the Georgia Open Records Act, you can request copies of any court document that is not sealed by a judge. Most court files in the Warner Robins area are open to the public.
Warner Robins Property Records Lookup
Property records are a strong part of the Warner Robins residents directory. The GSCCCA Real Estate Records Search lets you look up deeds, liens, and other property filings for any address in Houston County. This statewide index has property data from all 159 Georgia counties going back to January 1, 1999. You can search by name, book and page, or property details. Results show the buyer, seller, property location, and any liens on the record.
This tool is free to search. You can filter results by Houston County to find records tied to Warner Robins addresses. If someone bought or sold a home in Warner Robins, the deed should show up in this index. The GSCCCA also runs a Filing Activity Notification System called F.A.N.S. that alerts property owners when new documents get filed against their property. You can sign up with just an email address. This is a good way to keep track of your own property records in Warner Robins.
For tax records and property assessments, the Houston County Tax Assessor handles that data. Tax records show the assessed value of a home, the current owner, and the parcel number. These are public records under Georgia law.
Voter Data in Warner Robins Directory

The My Voter Page works for all of Georgia. You can use it to confirm whether someone is registered to vote in Warner Robins or Houston County. The system also shows when a voter last cast a ballot and which elections they took part in.

Under Georgia law, voters must update their address at least 30 days before an election.
Full voter registration lists for Houston County, which includes all Warner Robins voters, can be purchased through the Georgia Secretary of State office.

Warner Robins Criminal Record Search
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation maintains the state criminal history database through the Georgia Crime Information Center. You can request a name-based or fingerprint-based criminal history check that covers Warner Robins and all of Georgia. Processing takes 5 to 10 business days. The CCH Helpline is 404-244-2639 option 3.
For Warner Robins specifically, the P2C portal gives you recent arrest data from the local police department. This is faster than a GBI check but covers only Warner Robins city limits. If you need records from Houston County that go beyond the city, the Houston County Sheriff also keeps arrest and booking data. Between the city police portal and the county sheriff, you can find most recent arrest records for the Warner Robins area without going through the state.
Georgia has record restriction rules that affect what shows up in a criminal history search. Eligible arrests can be restricted after 2 years for misdemeanors, 4 years for most felonies, or 7 years for serious violent felonies. If a record has been restricted, it will not appear in a standard name-based check. O.C.G.A. Section 50-18-72 also protects certain law enforcement investigation files from public release if the case is still active.
