2016 Map of New Taiton

About this map

New Taiton and the surrounding agricultural lands of Wharton County are defined by a complex network of coastal prairie watercourses and drainage systems. The Colorado River meanders across the northern edge of the sheet, feeding into low-lying features like Robb Slough and Northington Lake. This landscape is marked by its transition from riverine wetlands to organized rural sections, where a grid of county roads supports local transit and irrigation. Two distinct private landing strips, Rodgers Roost Airport and El Campo Airpark, highlight the importance of aviation for large-scale ranching and farming operations in this part of Texas. The presence of numerous intermittent streams, including W Mustang Cr and E Mustang Cr, underscores the seasonal water management essential to the region's cattle and rice-growing heritage.
