2016 Map of Beaumont East

About this map

Beaumont and the intricate industrial landscape of the Texas Gulf Coast dominate this survey, centered where the Neches River divides Jefferson and Orange counties. The area's legacy as an energy and education hub is evident through landmarks like Spindletop Hill and Lamar University. Urban neighborhoods such as Pine Crest, Higgins, and West Oakland fan out from the river, while the eastern bank is defined by the marshy expanse of Smith Island and Clark Island. The northern reaches of the map show the conservation efforts at Big Thicket National Preserve, contrasting with the heavily engineered waterways of the Union Canal and Port Arthur Canal. Researchers will find a high density of local history markers, including several significant burial grounds like Magnolia Cemetery and Mansfield Cemetery, alongside transit remnants like Old Mansfield Ferry Rd.
