2022 Map of Buttermilk

About this map

Buttermilk serves as the central point of interest in this section of Comanche Co, Kansas. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Salt Fork Arkansas River, which cuts through the northern sections before meandering south. Further drainage is provided by local tributaries including Sheele Cr and Anderson Cr, which carve a series of breaks across the plains. This modern 2022 survey reveals a classic rural township-and-range structure, where the grid of local thoroughfares like Ave T and Rd 15 dictates the movement of people and resources between isolated ranching or agricultural operations. The map provides a contemporary record of how water access and topography continue to influence the footprint of this small settlement.
