About this map

Lake Corpus Christi dominates the landscape at the meeting point of Live Oak, San Patricio, and Jim Wells counties. This 2019 survey captures the developed shoreline where residential communities like Lake City and Pernitas Point overlook the water. The intricate shoreline is defined by numerous inlets and landforms, including Millers Bluff and the prominent Mesquite Island.

Further inland, the terrain transitions into ranching and rural residential tracts. The historic Casa Blanca settlement sits in the southeast, while the Wade Cem offers a point of interest for genealogists tracing local families. Transport and access are provided by a network of ranch roads and flight facilities like Arrowhead Airport, which serves the communities of Beldon Hollow and Carmel Hills. The hydrology of the region is mapped in detail, showing the creek systems of Lagarto Cr and Penitas Creek that feed into the reservoir.
