2012 Map of Danville

About this map

Danville and Runnymede anchor this agricultural landscape in northeastern Harper County, where the plains are etched by the meandering courses of the Chikaskia River and Spring Cr. The settlement pattern follows a rigid section-line grid, typical of the Kansas prairie, yet it is broken by the diagonal path of Highway 2. Local history is preserved at Pleasant Valley Cem and Cavalry Cem, while the agrarian economy is punctuated by small-scale aviation facilities like Bob Park Airport and Kaypod Airport. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the drainage of Sand Cr and Silver Cr, illustrating the subtle topography of the Red Hills region. This survey captures a moment where traditional rural infrastructure, centered on the post office at Danville, persists alongside modern road networks like Ne 100 RD and Ne 40 Ave.
