The Vermilion River and a complex network of man-made waterways define this low-lying landscape in south-central Louisiana during the mid-1990s. The transition from the urban edge of Abbeville to the industrial and agricultural heart of the parish is evident in the sprawling Erath Oil and Gas Field and the Tigre Lagoon Oil and Gas Field. Small, family-named settlements like Grosse Isle, Mack, and Camille dot the plains between the river and Bayou Tigre, often organized around historical property lines and drainage levees.
