2022 Map of Thompsons

About this map

Brazos River meanders through this landscape on the border of Fort Bend and Brazoria counties, shaping a terrain of bayous and ridges. To the west, the community of Thompsons sits near the BNSF Railway, while the eastern portion of the map shows the suburban expansion of Missouri City and Sienna Plantation. This area is rich with family and community history, evidenced by several burial sites including the Mount Pilgrim Baptist Church Cem, Jones Cem, and Edwards Cem. The intricate network of water features like Rabbs Bayou, Cottonwood Bayou, and Oyster Creek highlights the low-lying coastal prairie environment. Land use is a mix of agricultural history and modern development, with landmarks such as Rabbs Ridge and Turner Lake remaining prominent alongside a dense network of newer trails like the Big Creek Loop Trl and River View Trl.
