About this map

Batesville serves as the primary hub in this South Texas landscape, situated at the intersection of several regional thoroughfares including Ranch Rd 187 and Ranch Rd 117. The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of the Leona River, which snakes south through a patchwork of ranch lands and agricultural plots. This drainage system is bolstered by the Gallina Slough to the south and Liveoak Cr to the north, reflecting a riparian network essential for livestock and irrigation in this semi-arid environment.

Evidence of local infrastructure is found in the Old Comanche Irrigation Company Reservoir and the DM Ranch Airport, the latter signifying the large-scale ranching operations typical of Zavala County. A dense grid of local ways such as Old Loma Vista Rd and Ranch Rd 1866 connects outlying homesteads to the town center, while smaller streets like Garden St and Ramos St delineate the historic core of the settlement.
