2016 Map of Fort Stockton East

About this map

Fort Stockton sits at the western edge of this Pecos County landscape, where the Chihuahuan Desert meets the expanding industrial and residential footprints of West Texas. The terrain is dominated by the prominent rise of Sevenmile Mesa to the east, a distinctive landform that overlooks the seasonal drainage of Comanche Cr. Historical water sources like Cold Springs and the managed flow of the Highline Ditch underscore the critical importance of water management in this arid environment. The map captures a transition between the established street grid of the town and a network of outlying roads such as Imperial Hwy and Fm 1053. Economic activity is evidenced by the development along Industrial Rd, reflecting the area's role as a regional hub for transportation and resource management in the early twenty-first century.
