2016 Map of Gatesville West

About this map

Gatesville serves as the focal point for this Central Texas landscape, where the meandering Leon River defines much of the eastern terrain. The area is characterized by a mix of agricultural land and rising elevations, most notably at Bald Knob to the south. Transportation and utility are central to the region, evidenced by the presence of both the Gatesville Municipal Airport and McGregor Airport, alongside a dense network of county roads like Moccasin Bend Rd and Faubion Rd. Local history is anchored by the Hemelline Cem and established family-named landmarks. The drainage system is intricate, with numerous waterways such as Plum Cr, Blue Br, and Dodd Br feeding into the larger river basin, while Walker Lake and Anchor Lake provide significant local water features.
