2010 Map of Perico

About this map

Perico is situated in the high plains of the Texas Panhandle, where the drainage of Rita Blanca Creek and its tributaries, West Rita Blanca Creek and East Rita Blanca Creek, define the subtle topography. The landscape is marked by a rigid grid of rural routes and farm-to-market roads, including family-named landmarks such as Metcalf Rd and Brewster Ln. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Nebtex Land Company Airport serves as a reminder of the region's large-scale agricultural and ranching operations, which have long shaped the local economy. The network of naming conventions seen in roads like C and M Ln and O Bar Ln suggests the deep-rooted ranching heritage of Dallam County, reflecting the property lines and access routes of historical landholdings in this open prairie environment.
