1969 Map of Hobbs East

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The eastern edges of Hobbs meet the vast East Hobbs Oil Field in this late-1960s survey, updated with late-1970s revisions. The urban core shows a dense concentration of civic and educational infrastructure, including Highland Jr High Sch, Taylor Sch, and Washington Sch, alongside community hubs like Eagle Stadium and Maryland Park. The landscape is bisected by the New Mexico Texas state line and the Lea Co Gaines Co boundary, where the terrain is marked by the natural depression of Seminole Draw. A massive network of pipelines and pumping infrastructure, including a prominent Pumping Sta, underscores the region's reliance on petroleum extraction. On the southern outskirts, Prairie Haven Cem and Everglades Cem offer significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in this industrial borderland.
