2010 Map of La Ward

About this map

La Ward stands at the center of this coastal prairie landscape, where the agricultural grid of Jackson County meets the meandering waterways of the Texas Gulf Coast. The town's layout is defined by the intersection of state and local routes, including FM 616 and Revel Rd, serving a region deeply tied to ranching and aviation, as seen at Whites Airport. The terrain is shaped by the complex drainage systems of West Carancahua Creek and East Carancahua Creek, which flow southward toward the headwaters of Carancahua Bay. This 2010 survey illustrates the persistence of family-named landmarks and rural infrastructure, from W Ward Ranch Rd to the various farm-to-market roads that connect scattered homesteads across the low-lying coastal plains. The map provides a clear look at the hydraulic patterns and property boundaries that define this portion of the Texas coast.
