About this map

Montague serves as the focal point of this North Texas survey, exhibiting a classic grid layout with streets such as Main St, Franklin St, and Grand St. The surrounding landscape is defined by an extensive water management system, characterized by numerous conservation basins including Soil Conservation Service Debris Basin 115 and Soil Conservation Service Site 7 Reservoir. These structures are integrated into a drainage network comprising Salt Creek, West Farmers Creek, and Steelmans Branch.

Rural history is preserved through naming conventions on the land, from the Starkey Cemetery in the northeast to Saint Williams Cemetery south of town. The prominence of roadways like Rock Springs School Rd, Dixie School Rd, and Aurelia School Rd suggests the locations of former community centers. Industrial activity is noted by the PR Oil Lease, while the terrain rises toward the distinct landmark of Blue Mound near the eastern boundary.
