2014 Map of Durant

About this map

Durant stands as the primary namesake settlement in this section of Nebraska, situated along a prominent rail line that cuts diagonally through the northern landscape. This 2014 survey reveals a highly organized agricultural grid, where the boundaries between Polk Co and York Co follow a precise east-west alignment. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of Prairie Cr to the north and the meandering Big Blue River further south, creating subtle variations in the otherwise flat prairie. Local history is anchored by the Pleasant Hill Cem in the southeastern quadrant and the Bjerrum Reservoir to the west, reflecting a landscape shaped by both settlement needs and modern water management. The extensive network of county roads, such as Co Road 24 and 123rd Rd, highlights the enduring importance of this rural infrastructure for the surrounding farming community.
