About this map

Benavides serves as the central hub of this Duval County landscape, where a dense grid of streets reflects a community built around early transportation and civic life. The town's layout is anchored by Railroad Ave and Depot St, indicating the historical significance of rail commerce, while named thoroughfares like School St and Humble St provide points of interest for genealogists tracing local history.

Surrounding the settlement, the South Texas brush country is defined by an intricate network of intermittent drainages, including Las Animas Cr, Santa Gertrudis Cr, and Agua Poquita Cr. These watercourses dictate the local geography, weaving between rural routes like Ranch Road 2295 and Carmel Rd. The map also captures several outlying creeks such as Jaboncillos Cr and N Concepcion Cr, which frame the ranching and agricultural lands beyond the town limits.
