USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Coalinga emerges as a critical center of petroleum production in the mid-1950s, defined by the extensive Coalinga Oil Field and industrial infrastructure like the Coalinga Pumping Station. The town grid is highly developed, featuring institutions such as Jr College, Sunset Sch, and Cheney Sch, alongside the Southern Pacific railroad line that anchored the local economy. Beyond the residential core, the landscape is punctuated by Oil Storage Reservoirs and landmarks of mid-century leisure like the Drive-in Theater.
