2021 Map of Belle Glade

About this map

Belle Glade sits at the heart of this agricultural region on the southeastern edge of Lake Okeechobee. The landscape is defined by the massive engineering of the Everglades drainage system, prominently featuring the Hillsboro Canal and the North New River Canal. The map reveals the intricate network of canals and levees that manage water across the mucklands, supporting settlements such as Runyon, Dahlberg, and Belle Glade Camp. To the west, Torry Island and the Chosen Bridge provide a transition into the vast waters of South Bay and Pelican Bay. The grid-like structure of the surrounding fields is punctuated by key infrastructure like the Belle Glade State Municipal Airport and the Palm Beach West County Courthouse, reflecting the area's role as a vital civic and industrial hub for Palm Beach County.
