2013 Map of Lorena

About this map

The growing communities of Lorena and Robinson anchor this survey of McLennan County, Texas, just south of Waco. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Bull Hide Creek, Castleman Creek, and Cottonwood Creek, which meander through a mix of residential expansion and agricultural land. Regional aviation history is well-represented by several small airfields, such as Rabbit Run Airport and Smith Airport, alongside the more substantial Heathrow Airport. Genealogists and local historians will find the Lawson Cemetery and several memorial parks, including Waco Memorial Park and Chapel Hill Memorial Park, providing fixed points of community reference amid the suburban development of the early 21st century. The map also traces the smaller, established settlements of Atco and Ritchie, reflecting the area's transition into a more densely populated corridor.
