USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Big Spring and the surrounding West Texas plains are defined by a landscape of scattered ranching hubs and growing oil infrastructure during the mid-1950s. The regional economy is anchored by the Texas and Pacific railroad, which strings together settlements like Coahoma, Stanton, and Snyder across the arid terrain. Military activity is prominent at Webb Air Force Base, while the nearby Webb Training Annex and Big Spring State Park highlight the diverse land use in Howard County.
