2021 Map of Allensworth

About this map

Allensworth stands as a focal point in this southern section of the San Joaquin Valley, situated within the expansive agricultural landscape of the Central Valley. The map documents a highly structured environment defined by a grid of rural routes such as Garces Hwy and Highway 43, which intersect with numerous numbered roads and avenues that facilitate the region's intense cultivation. Water management, a critical component of life in this arid landscape, is represented by the Alpaugh Irrigation District Canal and the Old Channel Poso Cr. The boundary between Tulare Co and Kern Co runs along Country Line Ave, marking a significant administrative division in this section of California. Genealogists and historians can trace the relationship between these early 21st-century infrastructure projects and the historic African American settlement of Allensworth.
