Who owns the towers in Haywood County

The median structure here stands 177 feet, 78 feet shorter than the North Carolina median, typical of denser areas where more, shorter sites fill in coverage. The tallest is a tower near Canton at 339 feet, built in 1954. More than in any other decade, 30% were built in the 1990s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
