2018 Map of Crowley East

About this map

Crowley and Rayne anchor this portion of Acadia Parish, where the grid of city streets transitions into the expansive agricultural plains of southwest Louisiana. The landscape is defined by the intricate water management systems necessary for rice cultivation, including the Roller Canal and the winding Lyons Point Gully. Small communities and family landmarks are scattered throughout the rural sections, most notably at Ebenezer, which is home to its own Ebenezer Cemetery. To the south, the terrain becomes more complex as it approaches the wetlands surrounding Bayou Queue De Tortue and Indian Bayou. This area preserves several historic crossing points such as Petry Bridge and Faulk Bridge at the intersection of the Acadia, Lafayette, and Vermilion parish lines. Local aviation history is also represented by Hains Airstrip, situated among the farm fields between the primary settlements.
