About this map

The Guadalupe River serves as the central artery for this mid-1960s view of the Texas Hill Country, where the city of Kerrville serves as a regional hub for education and healthcare. The landscape is dotted with institutions such as the Schreiner Institute and the State Hospital, alongside local schools like Tivy High Sch and Carver Sch. Residential and institutional growth is concentrated along the riverbanks, extending towards Mt Wesley and the recreational grounds of Kerrville State Park.

Transportation patterns are defined by the Southern Pacific railroad and the Arcadia Loop Road, connecting the larger town to neighboring Ingram. Local history is preserved in the location of the Glen Rest Cem and Nichols Cem, while the landscape further west transitions into cattle country with features like Lazy Hills Ranch and the Will Tinn Ranch Home nestled among the draws of Bear Creek and Indian Creek.
