About this map

Woodson serves as the primary hub in this West Texas landscape, situated at the intersection of Highway 183 and Highway 209. The town center includes essential community features such as an Athletic Field, Storage Bins, and a Sewage Disposal facility. Local industry is clearly defined by the expansive Oil Field operations and numerous Oil Well sites scattered throughout the terrain, alongside a notable Gravel Pit to the northeast.

Water management and natural drainage are central to the area's layout, anchored by Lake Woodson and the winding paths of Middle Kings Creek and Bush Knob Creek. To the north, the elevation rises toward Hay Rick Mountain, while the southern portion of the map is marked by the path of an Old Railroad Grade, tracing a former transit corridor that once bypassed the town. For those researching family history, a local Cem is located on the periphery of the main settlement.
