Carencro and the northern reaches of Lafayette anchor this 2018 survey of the Acadiana landscape, where residential expansion increasingly meets a network of natural coulees. The terrain is defined by drainage patterns like Francois Coulee and Coulee Mine, which move water through a region historically shaped by its proximity to the St. Landry Parish and Lafayette Parish line. Local history and genealogy are anchored by landmarks such as Holy Sepulchre Cem and the Green Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery. The map documents a mix of legacy settlements such as Ossun, Vatican, and Cankton alongside modern industrial infrastructure like the Industrial Helicopters Inc Airport. This survey provides a precise account of the road network, from rural routes like Rue Scholastique to the major artery of the NE Evangeline Throughway.
