About this map

Livingston Reservoir dominates the landscape of Polk County in this contemporary survey, its sprawling shoreline defining a series of residential developments and recreational points. Small communities and named clusters like Blanchard, West Livingston, and Moore Hill are interconnected by a dense network of local roads such as FM-3277. The map illustrates how modern settlement patterns in this part of East Texas are inextricably linked to the reservoir, with neighborhoods like Tigerville and Tobacco Patch positioned along the numerous inlets and peninsulas.

Further south, the landscape transitions toward the Livingston Municipal Airport and the historic area of Swartout. Tributaries including W Tempe Cr and E Tempe Cr feed into the lake from the northeast, while prominent local elevations such as Indian Hill overlook the water. This document serves as a precise record of the developed residential tracts and infrastructure supporting the community adjacent to the Trinity River basin in the early twenty-first century.
