About this map

The Brazos River meanders across the northern reaches of this West Texas landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the arid drainage systems of China Branch and Wild Horse Creek. Knox City serves as the primary hub, showing a structured street plan centered around the junction of Highway 222 and Highway 6. To the south, the smaller settlement of O'Brien sits along the rail corridor, while Union Grove occupies the western edge near Union Creek.

Aviation and water management are prominent markers of the local infrastructure, with both the Knox City Municipal Airport and the private Oliver Airport serving the area. Local history is anchored at the Knox City Cemetery, while the northern section of the quadrangle contains specialized water features like the Clonts Lake Dam and Van Earl Tank, highlighting the importance of water storage in this ranching and farming region.
