2010 Map of Obar

About this map

Obar serves as the central point of this high plains landscape in Quay County, where a grid of rural routes like Quay Road K and Lockney Rd connects small family settlements. The map illustrates a sparse but organized ranching or farming layout, with named points such as Nelson, Hughs, and Bullock situated along these straight-line roads. Geographically, the terrain is defined by seasonal watercourses, including the West Fork Nara Visa Arroyo in the northeast and Sager Draw in the southwest. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Obar Cemetery located south of the main settlement provides a vital point of reference for the families who have inhabited this part of eastern New Mexico. The infrastructure is dominated by long-distance road corridors like Obar Rd, which intersect the landscape with geometric precision.
