2018 Map of Custer City

About this map

Custer City anchors the southeast portion of this modern survey, revealing a structured grid of residential streets like Orchard St and Elm St alongside local landmarks like the Masonic Cem. Further north, the small settlement of Independence is situated near the Independence Cem, marking a distinct node of historical occupancy in this agricultural landscape. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated system of water management, visible through numerous catchments such as the Beaver Cr Site 1 Reservoir, Haskett Reservoir, and Berrong Reservoir. These features, along with the meandering paths of Beaver Cr and Horse Cr, illustrate how water resources have been harnessed to support the rural economy. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including the Prairie View Cem, which sit among the section-line roads that organize the region.
