2017 Map of Arcadia East

About this map

Arcadia sits at the transition between the rolling Nebraska uplands and the fertile valley of the Middle Loup River. This 2017 study illustrates the critical role of water management in the region, featuring an extensive irrigation network including Canal Number 2 and Canal Number 4 that supports the local agricultural economy. While the town center is defined by streets like Bridge St and May St, the surrounding landscape is marked by long-standing landmarks of local heritage, such as the Balsora Cem located near the boundary between Valley and Sherman Counties. The terrain north of the river is dissected by drainage systems like Hawthorne Cr and Hays Cr, which cut through the high ground. Modern infrastructure is represented by the Riverbend Airport, situated on the river's northern bank, serving as a hub for the rural community.
