The western outskirts of Crowley and the surrounding agricultural plains of Acadia Parish define this 2015 survey. The landscape is characterized by an intricate network of waterways and drainage systems, most notably Coulee Triet and the Lazy Point Canal, which serve the region's rice-farming heritage. Smaller settlements like Estherwood, Midland, and Tortue are positioned along the primary east-west transport corridors, while Morse occupies the southern edge of the sheet. Local aviation is represented by Le Gros Memorial Airport and Lejeune Airport, indicating the importance of crop-dusting and regional travel in this part of Louisiana. Genealogists will find interest in localized landmarks such as Leger Cem near the northern boundary and Woodlawn Cem on the eastern edge, along with family-named roads like John Marsh Farm Rd and Ben Sensat Rd that reflect long-standing land ownership patterns in the parish.
