Industrial and agricultural land-use patterns define this coastal region of Texas during the mid-1960s. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad serves as a primary corridor, connecting the settlements of Alta Loma and Hitchcock as they expand toward La Marque. The landscape is a patchwork of family-named roads like Beine Road and McElmoyle Road, alongside significant energy infrastructure. The presence of the Alta Loma Oil Field, Franks Oil Field, and Sarah White Oil Field indicates the intense petroleum extraction defining the local economy.
