USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The rice-growing heart of Acadia Parish is centered on Crowley and Rayne in this mid-century look at the Louisiana prairie. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of irrigation canals, such as the Hunter Canal and Gueydan Canal, which supported the region's agricultural economy. This 1955 survey, updated with 1971 urban expansions, shows the Southern Pacific railroad corridor linking established settlements like Estherwood, Midland, and Kaplan.
