2020 Map of Bunkie

About this map

Bunkie serves as the central hub of this central Louisiana landscape, where the street grid of the town core meets a complex network of waterways and agricultural drainage. The area is defined by its relationship with Bayou Boeuf, which meanders through the terrain alongside the engineered Bayou Boeuf-Cocodrie Diversion Channel. Small settlements like Eola, Holmesville, and Carboco dot the surrounding countryside, connected by local routes such as Goux Rd and Shirley Rd. Aviation history is visible through multiple facilities, including the Bunkie Municipal Airport, Tebow Airport, and Bunkie Flying Service, reflecting the region's long-standing connection to crop-dusting and local transport. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the landscape, including the Hatfield Cem and Fogleman Cem, marking the locations of early parish families.
