2022 Map of Lubbock East

About this map

The Lubbock County Courthouse anchors the urban core of this West Texas landscape, where the city's grid meets the natural geography of the Llano Estacado. This area is defined by the convergence of the Yellow House Draw and Blackwater Draw, which carve through the plains to form Yellow House Canyon. Within this drainage system, several managed water bodies like Canyon Lake Number 2 and Blake Lake dot the terrain. The eastern reaches of Lubbock show a dense concentration of civic and educational institutions, including Texas Tech University and the American Commercial College. Industrial and transportation history is visible through the BNSF Railway lines and thoroughfares like Clovis Rd and Idalou Rd. Further south, the settlement of Burris sits near the N Fork Double Mountain Fork Brazos River, illustrating the historical importance of these watercourses in an otherwise arid region.
