About this map

Big Spring anchors the southeast corner of this West Texas landscape, where the flat plains of Howard County are marked by a transition from agricultural land to the industrial edges of the city. Industrial activity is signaled by labels like Oil Mill Rd and Coop Gin Rd, reflecting the cotton-processing heritage of the region. To the north, the small settlement of Fairview sits at the intersection of Ranch Rd 1584 and several county roads. The natural hydrology of the area is defined by the ephemeral Buzzard Draw and the more permanent presence of Threemile Lake and Beals Cr in the south. This terrain is crisscrossed by an extensive network of rural roads, such as Moore School Rd and FM 2230, which provide access to the vast ranching and farming tracts that dominate the central part of the quadrangle.
