2019 Map of Melvin

About this map

Melvin serves as the primary hub of this McCulloch County landscape, where the local street grid including Mesquite St and Hackberry St meets the rural path of Ranch Rd 2028. The terrain is defined by the southern slopes of the Brady Mountains and a complex network of waterways, including Brady Creek and S Brady Cr, which have been augmented by modern water management features like the Soil Conservation Service Site 40 Reservoir. To the west, the Concho Co and McCulloch Co boundary line runs through agricultural lands and draws. Local genealogy is anchored by the Melvin Cem and the settlement of Whiteland in the southeast. The map illustrates a rural Texas economy sustained by livestock and water conservation, evidenced by numerous numbered reservoirs and the branching paths of Clements Draw and Cow Cr.
