2022 Map of Algoa

About this map

Alvin and its surroundings serve as a central hub in this modern coastal Texas landscape, where the intersections of drainage and development define the terrain. The map traces the winding paths of Dickinson Bayou and Mustang Bayou, which cut through the residential expansions of Friendswood and League City. Local history is anchored by sites like Confederate Cem and Oak Park Cem, while the industrial and agricultural water management is evidenced by the American Canal traversing the western edge of the quadrangle. The presence of Alvin Community College and the specialized Alvin Byp transit corridor reflect the region's contemporary infrastructure. Further south, the settlements of Algoa and Santa Fe maintain a more linear grid pattern, separated from the northern suburban growth by a network of bayous and creeks including Halls Bayou and Chigger Cr.
