2017 Map of Deming West

About this map

The Mimbres River winds through this High Desert landscape, defining the hydrology of an area where the city of Deming expanded toward the southwest. This 2017 survey shows the transition from the concentrated street grid of the city to the more dispersed agricultural and residential patterns of the surrounding basin. In the rural areas to the north, distinctive features like the volcanic profile of Black Mtn stand in contrast to the developed corridors along N Gold Ave and Winchester Rd. Small settlements and local points of interest, such as Peruhill and Keeler Farm, provide markers of the region's agricultural footprint. For genealogists, the Holy Cross Cem serves as a significant local landmark, while the dense network of rural roads like Racetrack Rd and Florida St Sw illustrates the modern connectivity of Luna County's high plains.
