2018 Map of Buckeye NW

About this map

Buckeye anchors the eastern edge of this western Maricopa County landscape, where the edge of suburban development meets the agricultural and desert plains of the Salt River Valley. The map documents a complex water management system essential for desert habitation, notably the Roosevelt Canal and the Roosevelt Irrigation District CSR, which traverse the southern half of the quadrangle. These irrigation routes define the layout of the local road grid, including long thoroughfares like Indian School Rd and W Buckeye Rd. To the west, the arid bed of the Hassayampa River borders the territory, while the Buckeye Municipal Airport stands as a central landmark amidst the transition from organized street blocks to open desert. The presence of the Tonopah Salome Hwy cutting across the north highlights the area's role as a transit corridor connecting the Phoenix metropolitan fringe with the deeper desert reaches.
