2019 Map of Carey

About this map

The small settlement of Carey and the western outskirts of Childress define this portion of Childress County. This 2019 survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and transportation patterns of the Texas Panhandle, where ranch roads and county routes create a rigid grid across the rolling plains. Water management is central to the landscape, evidenced by the clustered reservoirs of Baylor Lake, Lake Childress, and Williams Reservoir, which contrast with the ephemeral drainage of Baylor Cr and Grassy Cr. For those researching local history, the Carey Cem stands as a significant point of reference south of the primary settlement. The eastern edge of the map transition into the municipal infrastructure of the county seat, anchored by the Childress Municipal Airport and the residential expansion along Ave F.
