2016 Map of Big Lake

About this map

Big Lake occupies a central role in this Reagan County landscape, where the town grid sits adjacent to its namesake water body and the ephemeral drainage of Big Lake Draw. The settlement pattern reflects a mid-twentieth-century expansion, with a dense network of residential streets such as N Mississippi Ave and N Texas Ave organized north of the railroad corridor. Local history is anchored at the Glen Rest Cem on the western edge of town, while the regional transportation infrastructure is highlighted by the Reagan County Airport. The surrounding terrain is defined by broad natural draws, including Taylor Draw to the northwest and Isaac Draw to the east, which dictate the placement of ranch roads like Rocker B Ln and Pembrook Rd. This 2016 survey captures the persistent layout of this West Texas community, documenting the intersection of local industry, aviation, and traditional ranching routes.
