2016 Map of Leander

About this map

Leander and Cedar Park anchor this survey of the rapidly developing corridor along the Travis and Williamson County line. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the San Gabriel and Brushy Creek systems, where numerous water management features like Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 5 Reservoir illustrate modern flood control efforts. For local historians, the presence of several small burial grounds such as Upchurch Cem, Bagdad Cem, and Whitley Cem provides critical genealogical touchpoints in an area seeing significant residential growth. The transition from rural ranching to suburban expansion is evident in the dense street networks pressing against established landmarks like Breakaway Park Airport and the historic named locales of Walkerton and White Stone.
