About this map

Germania and Greenwood occupy the heart of this Permian Basin landscape, where the flat Texas plains are defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and rural roads. The northern reach of the map is marked by the subtle drainage of Mustang Draw and the isolated depression of Salt Lake, providing rare topographical relief in an area dominated by agricultural and energy interests.

A network of farm-to-market roads, including FM 1208 and FM 1379, connects these small communities across the Martin and Midland county line. The passage of E Hwy 80 and the Interstate 20 frontage system across the central portion of the map illustrates the critical transportation corridor between Midland and Stanton, while numerous numbered county roads, such as Co Rd 2200 and S Co Rd 1083, facilitate access to the surrounding ranchland and industrial sites.
