2016 Map of Plainview

About this map

Plainview serves as the focal point of this High Plains region, showing a transition from a dense municipal grid to the expansive agricultural sections of Hale County. The urban layout is characterized by its orderly street system, which includes the campus of Wayland Baptist Univ and significant local landmarks like the Order of Odd Fellows Cem. To the northeast, the community of Seth Ward is clearly delineated, while the southern reaches of the map show the small settlement of Furguson. The landscape is fundamentally shaped by Running Water Draw, which winds through the southern portion of the city. This natural drainage feature is surrounded by numerous small depressions and playas, typical of the Llano Estacado, which dictate the placement of rural roads such as El Barrio Rd and Co Rd 102. Transportation is anchored by the Interstate 27 corridor and the Hale County Airport, illustrating the town's role as a regional hub.
