2013 Map of Anna

About this map

Anna and Melissa anchor this North Texas landscape, illustrating the rapid suburbanization of Collin County by the early 21st century. The map reveals a transition from traditional agricultural patterns to residential developments, with newer thoroughfares like Rosamond Pkwy and Fairway Ln cutting across the historical drainage basins of Throckmorton Cr and Slaughter Cr. Despite this growth, the area's rural heritage remains visible through its numerous family and community burial grounds, including Alexander Cem, Lair Cem, and Brinlee Cem. The topography is defined by the E Fork Trinity River in the west and several smaller tributaries such as Fitzhugh Br and Hatler Br to the southeast. Industrial and agricultural land use is represented by the Meat Producers Reservoir near the eastern boundary, while the northern settlement of Kelly marks the upper reaches of Hurricane Cr.
