1963 Map of Yoakum

About this map

Yoakum sits at the intersection of the Lavaca and De Witt county lines, serving as a regional hub for the surrounding ranching and oil country during the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by the Southern Pacific railroad corridor, which anchors the town's industrial core near the Water Plant and the extensive rail yards. Beyond the city limits, the terrain transitions into a patchwork of rural homesteads and small settlements like Petersville and Pearl City, connected by a network of creeks including Big Brushy Creek and Turkey Creek.
