About this map

Old Gilroy and the agricultural lands of the lower Santa Clara Valley appear in high detail during the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major waterways, including the Pajaro River, Llagas Cr, and the San Benito River, which have historically shaped the settlement patterns of this corridor. Small communities such as Carnadero, Miller, and Sargent are situated along the transit routes between the valley and the coast.

Evidence of the region's industrial and natural history is preserved through labels like the Sargent Oil Field and various water features such as Anzar Lake and Soda Lake. The terrain transitions from the valley floor into the Sargent Hills and Lomerias Muertas, reflecting the complex geography of the Gavilan Range. Educational and recreational development is noted at the Gavilan College Golf Course, while the Pescadero Cr and Tar Cr drainages carve through the western canyons.
