2010 Map of New Taiton

About this map

New Taiton and the neighboring community of Taiton anchor this coastal plain landscape in Wharton County, where agricultural lands are interspersed with energy production and local aviation. The settlement patterns follow a structured grid of county roads, such as Co RD 471 and FM 961 RD, which facilitate the region's ranching and farming economy. Natural drainage is defined by the winding course of the Colorado River in the northeast, complemented by the intricate waterways of Mott Slough and West Mustang Creek. Local industry is evidenced by the New Taiton Oil Field and Lakeview Oil Field, while the El Campo Airpark serves as a small-scale transportation hub for the rural area. Further south, the map details the community of Jones Creek, showing a transition toward the creek-fed lowlands that characterize this portion of the Texas Gulf Coast region.
