About this map

The edge of Plainview anchors this portion of the Texas South Plains, where urban expansion meets a grid of rural agricultural roads. This 2022 survey documents the residential fringe of the city along Mesa Dr and Yucca Ter, contrasting with the expansive open sections to the west. Two ephemeral waterways, Running Water Draw and Staton Draw, carve subtle paths through the landscape, influencing the placement of local infrastructure like the Quarterway Airport.

Outside the main city limits, the rural settlements of Boone and Wasson serve as landmarks in a territory defined by precise section lines and county roads. The transport network is characterized by functional routes such as Olton Rd and a series of named county roads that facilitate the movement of goods and people across Hale County. For those tracing the evolution of West Texas land use, this map provides a clear picture of how modern residential developments and aviation facilities are integrated into an established agricultural grid.
