2019 Map of Douro

About this map

West Odessa and the rail-aligned community of Douro anchor this Ector County landscape, where the residential expansion of West Texas meets the open terrain of the Permian Basin. The map shows a clear transition from the densely gridded suburban street network in the northeast—featuring long thoroughfares like W Yukon Rd and W 67th St—to the more sparse, industrial-adjacent lands to the southwest. FM 866 serves as a primary north-south artery, cutting through the center of the sheet and crossing the dry channel of Monahans Draw. This drainage feature provides a rare topographical break in an otherwise flat expanse dominated by oil field access roads and late-20th-century residential development. The infrastructure here reveals the characteristic layout of an area built around both petroleum extraction and the mid-century growth of nearby Odessa.
