2010 Map of Humble City

About this map

Humble City and the surrounding high plains of Lea County are captured in this 2010 survey, showcasing a landscape defined by its grid of rural roads and emerging industrial zones. The map illustrates a transitional geography where agricultural tradition meets modern infrastructure, anchored by the New Mexico Junior College in the south and the sprawling Industrial Airpark to its west. Small settlements like Knowles remain visible in the northeast, marked by the nearby Knowles Cemetery, while the development of Air Base City reflects the area's mid-century military and aviation legacy. The road network, including the N Lovington Hwy and numerous county routes like W Stiles Rd, links these scattered communities across the arid terrain. This edition provides a detailed look at the rural-industrial interface just outside of Hobbs, documenting property boundaries and land use before subsequent regional growth.
