About this map

Bloomfield serves as the primary hub of activity in this section of Knox County, defined by a grid of streets including S Pierce St and S Washington St. The landscape beyond the town is marked by a vast network of section roads, such as 542 Ave and 878 Rd, which underscore the organized agricultural partitioning of the Great Plains. Water drainage is defined by the winding course of Little Bazile Cr, which cuts through the undulating terrain south and east of the main settlement.

Genealogists and local historians can find specific points of interest like the Bloomfield Cem on the northern edge of town. To the south, the Bloomfield Municipal Airport indicates the modern infrastructure supporting this rural community. The map provides a clear view of the transition from the concentrated residential blocks of the village to the expansive farm plots that dominate the Nebraska countryside.
