2010 Map of Encino

About this map

Vallerreno Cemetery and Longoria Cemetery stand as quiet landmarks in this ranching and energy landscape south of Falfurrias. The community of Encino serves as a central point along US Hwy 281 Bus, surrounded by established family-named properties including Escondido Ranch, Tepeguaje Ranch, and Skipper Ranch. The economy of the South Texas brush country is clearly visible through the extensive infrastructure of the Rachal Oil Field and the Alta Mesa East Oil Field, alongside the transportation corridor of the Rachal Siding. Water features like Round Lake and Medio Lake punctuate the landscape, while a network of rural routes such as Las Cuatas Rd and Huppergate Rd connect the scattered ranching outposts and settlements like Rachal and Plano de Choche.
