2020 Map of Jal

About this map

Jal anchors this corner of the Permian Basin, where the grid of a modern oil-patch town meets the expansive terrain of the High Plains. The street layout reflects a community built on energy production, featuring heavy-haul routes such as Tank Farm Ln and Frying Pan Rd that reach out into the surrounding leasehold. South of the main settlement lies Bennett, a smaller point of activity near the intersection of Bennettville Rd and the regional highway system. The landscape transition is marked by the Toboso Flats, a distinct topographic area east of town. For those tracing the evolution of southeastern New Mexico, the map documents the dense network of local roads including N Dal Paso St and Mesquite Dr which define the residential and commercial heart of this Lea County community.
