Palo Alto and the surrounding coastal plains of Nueces County define this landscape, characterized by an extensive network of rural roads and drainage systems. The settlement of Driscoll sits on the eastern edge of the survey, where the street grid of 1st St and W Ave G meets the regional highway corridor. Outside of the towns, the terrain is dominated by the winding paths of Pintas Cr and Petronila Creek, which cut across the agricultural landscape. Genealogists and local historians will find several significant burial sites, including the Cementerio De La Luz, Rancho Plomo Cem, and Driscoll Cem. This modern topographic study illustrates how established land tracts are intersected by newer developments like Lost Creek and the farm-to-market road system, including FM 665 and FM 2826.
