2016 Map of Placedo

About this map

Placedo stands as the central hub of this coastal prairie landscape, where a grid of residential streets including Main St and College St meets the intersection of regional thoroughfares and rail lines. The terrain is defined by a slow-moving drainage system, with the meandering Placedo Cr and Ninemile Cr flowing toward the Gulf. To the northwest, the settlement of Dacosta marks the edge of the survey area, while Carr sits near the northeastern boundary. Historically significant corridors like Old Port Lavaca Rd cut diagonally across the quadrangle, reflecting older transportation patterns that predate the modern highway system. The crossing of the Victoria Co and Calhoun Co line in the south further highlights the administrative geography of this cattle and agricultural region.
