2021 Map of Buttonwillow
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
Buttonwillow sits at the heart of an intricate irrigation network in the southern San Joaquin Valley, defined by a systematic grid of agriculture-focused water management. This 2021 survey illustrates the complex hydraulic engineering required for farming in the Central Valley, where named channels like Garden Ditch, Eighty foot Ditch, and Arizona Ditch crisscross the landscape. The settlement pattern follows the industrial and logistical needs of the region, anchored by locations such as Kilowatt and Bowerbank. The terrain is mostly level, though Buttonwillow Ridge provides a slight elevation change amidst the surrounding fields. Transport is dominated by long, straight thoroughfares such as Seventh Standard Rd and Wasco Way, while natural features like Jerry Slough are integrated into the modern agricultural footprint of Kern County.
