2016 Map of Canton

About this map

Canton serves as the focal point of this East Texas survey, revealing a landscape defined by its crossroads and the many small watercourses that feed the Grand Saline Cr and Mill Cr. The town's grid is detailed near City Lake, while local roads like N Trade Days Blvd and First Monday Ln point to the area's well-known regional commerce traditions. Beyond the municipal limits, the map documents small rural clusters such as Red Hill, Wentworth, and Oakland, each often centered around community landmarks like Oakland Cem or Morris Chapel Cem. The terrain is punctuated by numerous managed water bodies, including the Soil Conservation Service Site Number 1 Reservoir and several named lakes such as Club Twenty Lake and Kellum Number 1 Lake. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Canton-Hackney Airport and Thompson Field in the northwest, showing the integration of modern transit into the traditional agricultural landscape of Van Zandt County.
