2020 Map of Cheneyville

About this map

Cheneyville serves as a central hub in this Rapides Parish landscape, where the irregular path of Bayou Boeuf dictates the local geography and road network. The map reveals a transition from dense agricultural grid patterns to the intricate wetlands of the Louisiana interior. In the south, the settlement of Cheneyville is anchored by its local street grid, including Front St and Jefferson Hwy, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with significant family and community landmarks such as Stafford Cem and Christians Cem. Moving north toward Lecompte, the terrain is defined by a complex drainage system of smaller waterways like Rattlesnake Bayou, Calohan Bayou, and Bayou Pompey. This 2020 survey captures the persistent relationship between these historic bayou corridors and the modern infrastructure that follows their banks, providing a clear view of the parish's rural character.
