Raccourci Old River and the complex drainage of the Atchafalaya Basin define this portion of Pointe Coupee Parish. The landscape is a network of watercourses including Bayou Latenache, Bee Tree Bayou, and Bayou White Vine, which weave through the extensive Morganza Floodway. This environment has long dictated the placement of human settlements, which are primarily concentrated along the higher ground of the old river levees and major transit corridors.
