2016 Map of Bastrop

About this map

The Colorado River defines the geography of this central Texas landscape, winding past the historic settlement of Bastrop and the residential community of Tahitian Village. The map reveals a transition from the structured street grid of the town center—including Chestnut St and Austin St—to the expansive rural reaches of Hills Prairie and David Bottom. Local history is visible in the scattered ranch lands and small communities such as Clearview and Upton. Notable water features and landmarks like Bastrop State Park Lake, Burleson Springs, and Duke Lake Number 2 indicate a region shaped by both its natural hydrology and intentional land management. The terrain is marked by distinctive local names like Pigeonroost Hollow and the Red Bluffs, which provide specific points of reference for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of the county outside the primary city limits.
