2016 Map of Danevang

About this map

Danevang serves as the central hub for this coastal prairie landscape, characterized by a highly organized grid of rural roads and drainage networks typical of the Texas Gulf Coast's agricultural heritage. The southern reaches of the map show the transition across the Wharton and Matagorda County line, where the terrain is subtly defined by the winding course of the Tres Palacios River and its tributaries, Willow Cr and Juanita Cr. The network of locally named thoroughfares such as Jurek Rd, John Fella Rd, and Baca Rd reflects the deep-rooted family ties and cultural history of the area. This 2016 survey documents the persistent rural character of the region, where land use remains closely tied to the natural watercourses that drain toward the Gulf, providing a detailed record of contemporary property boundaries and infrastructure.
