About this map

Whitesboro serves as the primary hub of this North Texas landscape, situated at the junction of the Missouri Pacific and Missouri - Kansas - Texas railroads. The town's grid is anchored by City Hall, the Po, and local landmarks like Sunset Park and Center Park. Outside the town center, the terrain is defined by its industrial and agricultural character, straddling the Cooke and Grayson county line.

Extensive petroleum development is evident through numerous installations such as the Kimbell - Sims Oil Field and West Sandusky Oil Field. Rural life is marked by a network of local congregations and burial grounds, including Bones Chapel, Elliott Ch, and the Liberty Hill Cemetery. Notable water features include a Fish Hatchery and several drainage systems like North Branch Mineral Creek and Sandy Creek, while the Old Grade Railroad traces a former path through the countryside.
