2019 Map of King

About this map

The settlement of King anchors this High Plains landscape in Hartley County, situated along a prominent transportation corridor that bisects the terrain. This rural expanse is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Cottonwood Draw in the east and a network of county roads including Middlewater Rd and Co Rd 24. The map reveals a highly structured division of land, with long straight-line boundaries and utility corridors typical of the Texas Panhandle's ranching and agricultural development. Topographic contours show a subtly undulating surface, where small depressions and drainage patterns like Cottonwood Draw provide the only breaks in the vast, open plateau. The modern alignment of Route 54 serves as the primary artery connecting this quiet corner of the state to the larger regional trade network.
