George Bush Intercontinental/Houston Airport dominates the southern landscape of this 2016 survey, illustrating the modern aviation infrastructure that serves the greater Houston metropolitan area. The map documents a complex suburban geography where the boundary between Montgomery and Harris counties meets at the confluence of several major waterways. The West Fork San Jacinto River flows southward into Lake Houston, joined by Spring Creek and Cypress Creek. This hydrological network defines the local topography, punctuated by features like Woodsons Gully and Black Slough. Residential developments and named thoroughfares such as Rayford Rd and Riley Fuzzell Rd connect established communities like Spring, Humble, and Kingwood. The survey provides a precise look at the 21st-century growth patterns where traditional Texas watercourses meet expanding transport hubs like the State Highway 35 Bridge.
