About this map

Barker Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this West Houston periphery, a massive flood-control feature defined by the Barker Dam and the winding course of Buffalo Bayou. This 2010 survey illustrates a period of intense residential expansion, where former agricultural tracts have been replaced by a dense network of suburban subdivisions like Westlake Village, Settlers Village, and Bear Creek Plantation. Despite this modernization, local history remains anchored at sites like Baker Cemetery near the reservoir's edge.

Transportation and infrastructure are central to the area's layout, with the West Houston Airport situated near Groeschke Rd and major thoroughfares such as Barker Cypress Rd and Clay Rd providing the framework for the many planned communities. The drainage patterns of Bear Creek, Langham Creek, and South Mayde Creek are preserved even as they thread through developed neighborhoods like Lakes of Bridgewater and Glencairn Park.
