2010 Map of Jal

About this map

The high desert landscape of southeastern New Mexico is anchored by the community of Jal, a town defined by its grid of residential and industrial streets in the corner of Lea County. To the south, the smaller settlement of Bennett sits along a primary north-south corridor, reflecting the region's sparse but organized distribution of infrastructure. The terrain is characterized by the broad expanse of Toboso Flats, where a network of county roads like County Rd 24 and County Rd 4 crisscross the arid plains. Local industrial activity is evidenced by the Lea County Road Department Pit located just outside the main settlement. This layout illustrates a community built around resource extraction and logistical hubs, where major thoroughfares such as Main Line Red St and E Wyoming Ave facilitate movement through this remote corner of the Permian Basin.
