2012 Map of Broadland

About this map

James Valley Junction anchors the southern portion of this Beadle County landscape, marking a vital point of transit and connection in the rural interior of South Dakota. The survey reveals a strict, expansive grid of section-line roads, such as 394th Ave and 203rd St, which define the agricultural character of the region. Small, scattered seasonal wetlands and prairie depressions are interspersed throughout the rectilinear fields, contrasting with the engineered precision of the road network. In the northern reaches, the thoroughfare of Broadland St provides an east-west axis through the terrain. The presence of specialized street names like Stilo St and W Park Ave NW suggests the edges of more structured development near the southern border, where the rural grid begins to meet the outskirts of larger settlements.
