2012 Map of Anton

About this map

Anton and the surrounding plains of Hockley County are characterized by a highly organized grid of rural roads and agricultural fields. This landscape reflects the systematic development of the South Plains, where large-scale farming is facilitated by a network of thoroughfares like Farm-To-Market Road 1072 and FM-597. The settlement of Anton serves as a central hub, with its residential streets including Arnett Ave and Lawrence Ave arranged alongside the regional transit corridor. To the northwest, the map identifies Bainer, a secondary node in the rural transport network. The presence of Anton Cem south of the town center provides a point of continuity for local genealogy, while the naming of corridors like Onion Shed Rd and Fisher Rd hints at the agricultural history and landownership patterns that have shaped this portion of the Texas panhandle over several decades.
