2022 Map of Benson
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
Benson serves as the regional hub in this western Minnesota landscape, defined by a grid of agricultural sections and a complex network of waterways. The town's layout follows a distinctive orientation, with residential streets like Minnesota Ave and Atlantic Ave running parallel to the railroad corridor, while the Swift County Courthouse stands as a central civic landmark. Genealogy and local history are anchored by three distinct burial grounds: Benson City Cem, Saint Francis Cem, and Our Redeemer Cem, providing a clear record of the community's early settlement clusters. The surrounding terrain is heavily managed for drainage, featuring the E Br Chippewa River, Mud Cr, and engineered channels such as Judicial Ditch Number Five and County Ditch Number Eight, which support the intensive farming of the Swift County plains.
