2010 Map of Cometa

About this map

Cometa sits as a central settlement in this south Texas landscape, characterized by large ranch holdings and a network of ephemeral waterways. The geography is defined by the drainage patterns of Comanche Creek, Pendencia Creek, and Chacon Creek, which cut through the brush country. Genealogy and local history are anchored by Cometa Cemetery and Vivian Cemetery, located near the junction of FM 393 and Rossington RD. The prominence of aviation in managing these large territories is evident through the inclusion of the Picosa Ranch Airport and Chacon Creek Ranch Airport. Private land use is further noted by sites like Eslabon Ranch and Farias Ranch Lake Number 1, reflecting the region's long-standing ranching tradition. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure in Zavala County, including the course of Ranch RD 2691 and various county roads that connect these isolated homesteads.
