2011 Map of Centerton

About this map

Centerton and the surrounding Benton County landscape are shown here during a period of significant regional transition, where traditional agricultural roots meet modern infrastructure. The presence of the Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport in the southern half of the map marks the area's role as a transportation hub, while older settlements like Vaughn, Mason Valley, and Seba reflect the long-standing rural community structure. Waterways such as Little Osage Creek and McKisic Creek anchor the landscape, providing the location for historic industry and landmarks like the Osage Mills Dam and Centerton Hatchery Upper Pond Dam. Family and community history is deeply etched into the land through numerous burial grounds, including the Coffelt Cemetery, Barron Cemetery, and Armstrong Cemetery. The mapping of small hamlets such as Highfill and Osage Mills provides researchers a look at how early milling and spring-side settlements integrated with the developing road network.
