2010 Map of Abell

About this map

Abell serves as the focal point of this High Plains landscape, situated amidst a grid of rural roads and drainage systems in Carson County. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of West Dixon Creek and Middle Dixon Creek, which carve subtle paths across the prairie. The presence of Pantex Lake in the southwestern corner indicates the importance of surface water in this agricultural region. Transportation in the area relies on a network of Farm-to-Market and County Roads, such as FM 1342 and Co RD K, which facilitate movement between the scattered farmsteads and larger regional centers. This map provides a look at the land use and topographic character of the Texas Panhandle at the beginning of the 21st century, illustrating how the natural drainage of the Dixon Creek system interacts with human infrastructure.
