2010 Map of Hester Ranch

About this map

Yellow House Oil Field and the Pettit San Andreas Oil Field anchor the landscape of this Hockley County region, where the industrial infrastructure of West Texas petroleum extraction meets a highly organized agricultural grid. The terrain is defined by a systematic network of roads named after world nations and major cities, including India Rd, Greece, Denmark Rd, and Indianapolis Rd. This naming convention suggests a mid-century period of rapid rural development and land partitioning. Near the northern boundary, Hester Ranch stands as a primary local landmark, while the Gordon Cobb Lake Dam indicates the management of scarce water resources in this High Plains environment. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and farm-to-market routes like Fm 1490 and Fm 2306 that facilitate the movement of goods from these remote oil fields and ranches.
