2017 Map of Cambridge

About this map

Cambridge serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Southwest Nebraska, situated along the northern bank of the Republican River. The town layout is clearly defined, with residential streets like Niobrara St and Nakoma St bordering the Railway St corridor. The surrounding terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems including Medicine Creek, Little Medicine Creek, and Richmond Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology required to support regional farming. To the west of the main settlement lies Fairview and the adjacent Fairview Cem, while the Cambridge Municipal Airport sits on the bluffs to the north. Evidence of large-scale water management is present in the Red Willow Canal and Bartley Canal, which parallel the river valley to facilitate irrigation across the Furnas Co and Red Willow Co border.
