About this map

Rosharon and the neighboring settlements of Bonney and Alvin occupy this coastal prairie landscape in Brazoria County, characterized by a complex network of bayous and drainage laterals. The terrain is defined by the winding courses of Austin Bayou and Flores Bayou, which cut through a grid of county roads and expanding residential developments. To the north, Thurmond Lake and Bonner Slough provide significant hydrologic landmarks near the historical Daughters Cemetery and Pilgrim Cemetery.

Aviation plays a notable role in the local infrastructure, with both BB Airpark and the Flyin Tiger Airport positioned to serve the region. The map captures the suburban growth of the area, where modern streets like Suncreek Ranch and Majestic Oaks Drive interface with established agricultural tracts. The southern portion of the sheet shows the northern reach of Angleton, illustrating the proximity of these growing communities along the State Highway 288 corridor.
