About this map

Centerville sits at the heart of this high-plains landscape where the borders of New Mexico and Texas meet. The geography is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and draws that have shaped the ranching history of Union County, including the winding path of Monia Creek and the southern reaches of Fullingim Draw. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the enduring rural character of the region, where infrastructure like Romero Rd and Ranch Rd 3296 connects isolated ranch lands across the state line.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Centerville Cem just north of the town site, providing a tangible link to the families who settled this corner of the Llano Estacado. The terrain rises to notable landmarks such as High Lonesome Hill, while drainage systems like Entrania Creek and Cramer Creek illustrate the complex hydrography necessary for sustaining life in this arid environment.
