2022 Map of Oilton

About this map

Oilton serves as the central hub of this South Texas landscape, where a grid of streets including Ramona Ave and E Laredo Ave meet the broader transit corridors of Webb County. The map documents several significant burial sites for local genealogy, including the Oilton Cem just south of the main townsite, the Mirando City Cem to the west, and the Los Ojuelos Cem further south. These sites, often tied to long-standing ranching families, provide a vital record of the area's settlement history. The terrain is defined by ephemeral waterways such as Ryo Cr and the Arroyo de los Angles, which drain the scrubland between expansive ranch properties. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Van Es Ranch Airport, highlighting the role of private flight in managing the vast distances of the Rio Grande plains.
