1965 Map of Deming East

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Deming serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, where the convergence of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific railroads underscores its historical role as a transportation hub. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral Mimbres River and the rugged southern extent of the Cooks Range to the north. Social and community life are well-documented through landmarks like the Southwestern New Mexico State Fairgrounds, the Rio Mimbres Country Club, and the Mountain View Cem. Outside the main settlement, the map traces the drainage patterns of China Draw and Starvation Draw, alongside isolated outposts like Mirage. Cultural artifacts of the era, such as the Rio Mimbres Drive-in Theater and the local Airport, provide a specific look at the town's mid-century expansion and infrastructure.
