About this map

Industrial development and agricultural settlement define the landscape in this Howard County quadrangle, where the Texas and Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary axis for growth. In the southwest, Big Spring emerges as a regional hub, featuring a concentrated urban footprint with specialized facilities like the State Hospital, an Experiment Farm, and a prominent Radio Tower. To the east, the small communities of Coahoma and Sand Springs highlight the rail-dependent economy, while a nearby Refinery and Tank Farm indicate the area's emerging petroleum and processing infrastructure.
