2010 Map of Slidell

About this map

Slidell serves as the primary hub in this rural Texas landscape, situated at the junction of several regional routes including FM 455 and FM 51. The surrounding countryside is defined by an extensive network of waterways and water management structures. Denton Creek winds through the center of the territory, joined by tributaries such as North Pecan Creek, Harts Creek, and Black Creek. The dominance of agricultural and land management interests is evident through the numerous Soil Conservation Service sites and dams, including Site 20 and Site 18e, which are scattered across the terrain to manage runoff. Smaller communities like Sycamore and Allison anchor the western and central sections, while Greenwood Cemetery stands as a significant local landmark for genealogical research. The map's detail of numerous private and oil lease roads reflects the area's dual focus on ranching and energy extraction.
