About this map

Oso Cr and its western tributary, W Oso Cr, carve through the agricultural landscape southwest of Corpus Christi in this 2016 survey. The terrain is defined by a dense grid of farm-to-market roads and county routes, reflecting the region's agricultural productivity and transition toward residential development. Small water bodies like Belvy Lake are scattered among the fields, while larger landmarks such as Cuddihy Field and Memory Gardens Cem sit on the outskirts of the primary urban center.

Local infrastructure is represented by the community of Petronila and the residential area of Tierra Grande. Aviation history is present at Dean Airport, and the map documents specific local landmarks like Oso Gin Rd and Blackie Berry Rd, which point to the area's agricultural heritage. This map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns and land use in Nueces County, serving as a record of the shifting boundary between rural fields and expanding suburban neighborhoods.
