2010 Map of Straight NE

About this map

The High Plains of the Oklahoma Panhandle are defined here by a rigid, mile-square section grid that governs nearly every movement across the landscape. In this 2010 survey of Texas County, the arterial Co Hwy D serves as a primary east-west corridor, intersecting a series of north-south routes including Mile 40 Rd and Mile 42 Rd. The landscape is typical of the region's agricultural layout, where local transport relies on an alphabetized and numbered system such as E Rd, F Rd, and Co Rd 28. This map captures the geometric precision of the panhandle's rural infrastructure, illustrating how the township and range system dictated settlement patterns and land use in this part of the state.
