2016 Map of Lawn

About this map

The settlement of Lawn serves as the focal point in this portion of the Texas Big Country, situated near the southwestern corner of the Taylor and Callahan county line. The landscape is defined by a sophisticated water management network, featuring several man-made impoundments such as Soil Conservation Service Site 17 Reservoir, Soil Conservation Service Site 16 Reservoir, and Soil Conservation Service Site 15 Reservoir. These reservoirs supplement natural drainage systems like Jim Ned Cr and Twomile Cr, illustrating the region's historical reliance on water conservation for ranching and agriculture. Local family history is grounded at the Cope Cem, while the town itself is serviced by a Post Office and situated along the historic Abilene-Coleman Rd. Small bodies of water including Lake Lawn and Santa Fe Lake further characterize the immediate vicinity of the town site.
