2019 Map of Petronila NE

About this map

The coastal plains of Nueces County just west of Corpus Christi appear here in a landscape defined by agricultural infrastructure and the winding course of Oso Creek. The small community of Petronila stands at a rural junction in the southwestern portion of the sheet, while the newer residential development of Tierra Grande is situated further north. Local industry is anchored by the Oso Gin, which sits along Oso Gin Rd near the drainage of W Oso Creek. The layout of the land is heavily influenced by a grid of farm-to-market roads and county routes, including Blackie Berry Rd and FM 665, which connect the inland fields to the growing periphery of the city. Genealogists may find interest in the Memory Gardens Cem or the localized naming of rural avenues like Tierra Poniente and Santa Maria Ln.
