About this map

Plainview serves as a primary population center within this Tulare County landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of irrigation and water management. The agricultural grid is heavily structured around waterways such as Hutchinson Ditch and natural courses including Outside Creek, Lewis Creek, and Inside Creek. These features illustrate the intensive land use required to support the Central Valley's orchard and field crops.

Strategic intersections are marked by local hubs like Cairns Corner and Spinks Corner, reflecting the classic California valley pattern of small settlements clustered at crossroads. Aviation and commerce are represented by Thunderhawk Field in the northeast, while the southern boundary is anchored by the N Br Tule River. The map meticulously records the numbered road system, from Road 148 to Road 200, which facilitates the movement of goods through this productive region.
