About this map

Dilworth Cemetery and Amargosa Cemetery anchor this rural landscape in Jim Wells County, marking the long-standing family and community ties in the region. The area is defined by a dense network of colonias, including Vally-Hi Acres Number 1 Colonia, Loma Alta Ranch Colonia, and Agua Dulce Ranch Number 1 Colonia, reflecting a unique residential pattern of unincorporated settlements.

Naval aviation and the energy industry are prominently represented by the Orange Grove Naval Air Landing Field and the Alfred Oil Field. A complex system of seasonal watercourses like Agua Dulce Creek, Tecolote Creek, and El Caro Creek cuts through the territory, dictating the placement of ranch roads and settlements. This survey provides an essential look at the transition between traditional ranching land and the growth of these specialized communities during the early 21st century.
