2010 Map of Signal Hill

About this map

Cedar Valley and several family raches define the suburban-rural fringe of Southwest Austin during the first decade of the 21st century. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling networks of Slaughter Creek and Bear Creek, where the transition from traditional ranching properties like Heissner Ranch and Signal Hill Ranch to residential development is clearly visible. Genealogists will find the locations of the Oliver Cemetery in the north and the Johnson Cemetery near Friday Mountain in the south particularly valuable for tracing local family lineages. Transport corridors such as the S Mo-Pac Expy and Fitzhugh Rd provide the framework for the area's growth, while prominent landforms like Signal Hill and Spring Hollow anchor the topography of the Texas Hill Country.
