About this map

Jayton serves as the primary hub of this Kent County landscape, with its residential grid defined by streets like Van Buren Ave, Washington Ave, and Jones St. The surrounding terrain is heavily influenced by the drainage patterns of Croton Cr and Short Croton Cr, which carve through the land to create features such as Hot Springs Canyon and Panther Canyon.

A notable geological feature, the Salt Flat, lies to the northwest of town, illustrating the mineral-heavy hydrology of the region. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several burial grounds scattered across the area, including Jayton Cem just north of the town limits, Red Mud Cem to the east, and the Spur Memorial Cem near the eastern boundary. The presence of the Railroad Tank and Jayton City Lake further highlights the critical importance of water management in this part of West Texas.
