1979 Map of Clareville

About this map

Clareville sits at the western edge of Bee County in the late 1970s, where the landscape is defined by the intersection of South Texas ranching and petroleum interests. The Oil Field patterns suggest an active energy economy, with wells scattered across the terrain between Aransas Creek and Elm Creek. To the north, the Beeville Municipal Airport provides a modern navigational hub, while a local Race Track located near the center of the sheet hints at rural recreation during this period.
