About this map

Ben Bolt and the southern reaches of Alice anchor this landscape during a period of residential expansion and rural connectivity. The map documents numerous colonias—unincorporated settlements often reflecting specific local development patterns—including K-Bar Ranch Colonia, Alice Acres Colonia, and Holshouser Number 1 Colonia. These communities are clustered along major transit corridors like Us HWY 281 and FM 1554, which serve as the lifelines for the region's agricultural and suburban growth.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites, such as Fraternal Cem, Lattas Cem, and Calaveras Cem. The geography is defined by seasonal waterways like Lattas Cr and San Andreas Cr that wind through the ranchlands. Large-scale infrastructure is also prominent, specifically the Alice International Airport in the northeast and the designated Jim Wells Co and Kleberg Co boundary line to the south, marking the edge of the county's jurisdiction.
