2009 Map of Deerfield

About this map

The Arkansas River meanders across this High Plains landscape, accompanied by an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural heritage. Large-scale water management projects like the Amazon Ditch and Martin Ditch run roughly parallel to the river, illustrating the complex engineering required to sustain local farming. The settlement of Deerfield sits at the northeastern corner, characterized by a tight grid of streets including Katz Dr and Sixth Ave, while the eastern edge of Lakin is visible to the west. Between these hubs, the terrain is organized by a precise network of county roads such as Co Rd 21 and Co Rd 23, reflecting the systematic Section-Range surveying that defines much of Western Kansas. Near the western margin, the Lakin Cemetery serves as a significant landmark for those researching local family histories.
