2012 Map of Bradley

About this map

Bradley serves as the primary hub of this eastern South Dakota landscape, appearing here in the early 21st century as a small community defined by its grid of local streets including Main St and Railway St. The presence of the Po at the center of town marks the continued civic importance of this settlement amidst the expansive agricultural sections of Clark County. The surrounding terrain is characterized by numerous prairie potholes and wetlands, most notably the larger bodies of Reid Lake to the southwest and Madian Lake to the east. A precise network of section-line roads, such as 424th Ave and 156th St, divide the territory into the traditional township and range squares common to the Great Plains, illustrating a land use pattern that has remained consistent for over a century.
