Hovey and its surrounding ranchlands are depicted in this 2010 survey of Brewster County. The landscape is defined by its water management and geographic draws, essential for livestock in this arid region. Ranching infrastructure is prominent, with remote sites such as Burnt House Creek Ranch and various water sources including the Sulfur Windmill, Flat Windmills, and the Perch Tank. These features suggest a continuation of long-standing land use patterns where survival depends on the strategic placement of wells and tanks.
