2019 Map of Carlsbad

About this map

Carlsbad serves as the primary settlement on this West Texas survey, organized along a traditional grid with streets such as Main St and Llano St. The landscape beyond the town is defined by its drainage systems, including the notable Sulphur Draw and several branches of Live Oak Cr. The map reveals a transition from the structured town blocks of Carlsbad to more expansive rural roads named for the local flora, such as Post Oak Rd and Myrtle Oak Rd. To the south, the boundary between Tom Green Co and Irion Co cuts across the terrain near the headwaters of E Rocky Cr and Brushy Cr. This 2019 data illustrates the modern rural development of the Edwards Plateau region, characterized by large loops and runs like Buck Hollow Loop and Turkey Run that follow the natural contours of the draws and creek beds.
