2010 Map of Lockettville

About this map

Lockettville and the smaller community of Arnett anchor this West Texas landscape, which is defined by a rigorous grid of ranch roads and energy infrastructure. The geography is notable for its extensive naming of local routes, with corridors like Rattlesnake, Wolf, and Tiger crisscrossing the plains between larger thoroughfares such as Fm 41. The industrial footprint of the region is centered on the West Ropes Oil Field, reflecting the economic importance of petroleum extraction in Hockley County during the early 21st century. While the terrain appears largely flat, the intricate web of section-line roads, including Ranch Rd 3261 and Fm 1585, reveals the highly organized division of land typical of the South Plains. These local roads serve as the primary landmarks for genealogists and local historians tracing the reach of family homesteads and ranching operations throughout the quadrangle.
