2010 Map of Sweet Home

About this map

Sweet Home serves as the primary settlement in this corner of Lavaca County, situated at the junction of FM 531 and US Hwy 77 Alt. The landscape is defined by a dense network of dendritic drainage systems, where small creeks and branches carve through the Texas coastal plains. To the north, North Fork Mustang Creek and South Fork Mustang Creek converge, while the southern reaches are dominated by Supplejack Creek and the Pilot Grove Branch. Local genealogy and community history are anchored by the Queen of Peace Cemetery near the town center and the more secluded Yellow Bank Cemetery to the east. This 2010 survey illustrates a rural environment where land use is dictated by the winding paths of waterways like Clarks Creek and Burncamp Creek, which influence the layout of the local county road system.
