Forsan sits at the northern edge of this West Texas landscape, where Howard, Glasscock, and Sterling counties meet. The settlement is centered around a small grid of streets including Main St and 6th St, with a local Po serving the community. This 2016 survey illustrates a transition from the town's organized layout into the more irregular drainage patterns of the Edwards Plateau. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and branches of the Concho River system, including the N Concho River and S Concho River. These waterways, along with features like Cannibal Draw and Dobson Cr, dictate the placement of ranch roads such as Sisson Rd and McDonald Rd. The map provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure at the intersection of three counties, preserving the names of local thoroughfares like Bowhunter Rd and Reed Rd that link isolated homesteads to the regional center.
