2016 Map of Roby

About this map

The settlement of Roby serves as the focal point for this western Texas landscape, positioned at the intersection of several regional travel routes in the Rolling Plains. The topography is defined by a dense network of intermittent drainages that carve through the dry terrain, including Sandy Creek to the east and the complex system of Cottonwood Creek and East Cottonwood Creek in the central and southern reaches. Small seasonal tributaries like Alkali Creek and Plum Branch highlight the importance of water management in this agricultural environment. The map records a vast grid of county roads, such as Co RD 304 and Co RD 416, which provide access to the dispersed farmsteads and ranch lands surrounding the town center. This layout reflects the enduring rural character of Fisher County, where the street grid of Roby, including West North 3rd Street, transitions abruptly into the broad, sectioned acreage of the surrounding prairie.
