About this map

Kenedy serves as a central hub in Karnes County, where the street grid fans out across a landscape defined by seasonal creek beds and agrarian land use. This 2019 survey captures the town's layout, including local landmarks like the Karnes County Airport and three significant burial grounds: Butler Cem, Escondido Cem, and Kenedy Cem. The geography is shaped by drainage systems such as Escondido Cr and Hondo Cr, which feed toward the San Antonio River at the eastern edge.

Modern water management is evident through the Soil Conservation Service Site 11 Reservoir and its counterpart, Site 2 Reservoir. Outside the developed center, the terrain is named through local descriptors like Cow Hollow, Possum Hollow, and Rock Hollow, reflecting the historical naming conventions of the South Texas brush country. Transport links, including the long stretch of Laredo road and Card Airfield, illustrate the connection between this rural community and the broader regional infrastructure.
