2010 Map of Inez NW

About this map

Salem serves as the primary focal point of this coastal plain landscape in Victoria County, where the transition from agriculture to ranching is evidenced by the network of rural roads and land divisions. The hydrology of the region is defined by the meandering course of Garcitas Creek, which dominates the central and eastern portions of the quadrangle. Other drainage patterns, including Willow Creek and Casa Blanca Creek, shape the low-lying terrain. The transportation grid is characterized by a mix of state and local routes, including FM 444 and numerous named local roads such as Salem Rd, Fuhrman Rd, and J-2 Ranch Rd, which suggest established family holdings and ranching operations. This 2010 survey reflects a contemporary view of the Texas coastal prairies before significant modern suburban expansion reached this specific corridor.
