About this map

Hackberry Lake provides a central reference point in this Ector County landscape, which by 2012 shows a distinct transition from open range to organized rural subdivision. The northern half of the territory is defined by a sparse network of numbered and named water sources, including Windmill Number Twentytwo, the Thomas Windmill, and South Camp Windmill. These features indicate the persistent ranching heritage of the Permian Basin even as residential expansion moves north from Gardendale.

To the south, a grid of residential streets emerges, with thoroughfares like E Cottonwood Rd and N Loyola Ave cutting through the arid terrain. The area is bisected by Ranch Road 1788, a primary artery for the local oil and gas economy, connecting these new homesteads to the wider regional infrastructure. The density of labels such as E Stanford St and E Browder Rd reflects the rapid growth of housing in this West Texas environment.
