2010 Map of Canyon SE

About this map

South Cita Creek meanders through this portion of the Texas Panhandle, providing a natural break in the geometric grid of Randall County. The landscape is defined by a rigorous network of section-line roads, such as Lawrence Rd and S Georgia St, which reflect the region's agricultural development and land division. While primarily rural and open, the map shows the incremental southward expansion of the suburban grid with residential streets and cul-de-sacs appearing near Tradewind St. The interplay between the natural course of the creek and the rigid man-made thoroughfares like Osage St and S Grand Rd illustrates the 21st-century transition of the High Plains from traditional ranching and farming to more dense development.
