2010 Map of Dudley

About this map

Dudley is situated at the heart of this agricultural landscape in Lyon County, positioned along the intersection of County Hwy-9 and 260th St. This area reflects a highly organized rural grid system, punctuated by hydrological features like Lake Marshall in the southwest and the meandering course of the Redwood River crossing the northern section. The map reveals the intricate water management required for farming in this region, notably through County Ditch Number Sixty, which channels water toward the tributaries. These drainage patterns and local roads such as County Hwy-72 and 330th Ave illustrate the modern spatial organization of the Minnesota prairie, where small settlements like Dudley serve as local hubs within a dense network of sectional roads and drainage ways like Meadow Creek.
