Yellow House Oil Field and the Pettit San Andreas Oil Field anchor this portion of the Texas High Plains, illustrating the deep-seated petroleum industry of Hockley County. The landscape is defined by a rigid rectilinear grid of roads, many bearing international names such as Norway Rd, Denmark Rd, and Mexico Rd. This naming convention suggests a systematic approach to rural development and land partitioning in the region.
