2020 Map of Emerson

About this map

Emerson sits at a crossroads of the South Arkansas timberlands and the Louisiana state line, serving as the primary hub for a landscape defined by its creek drainage systems and agricultural history. The town is structured around a network of streets including S Elm St, S Davis St, and Grayson St, showing a small-town grid that transitions into the rural tracts of Columbia County. The surrounding territory is carved by a series of waterways, notably the Little Cypress Cr and N Cypress Cr, which flow through the forested terrain. Evidence of long-standing community roots is found in several burial grounds, such as Providence Cem and Forest Grove Cem. To the south, the settlement of Millerton marks the approach to the Louisiana border, where the land patterns shift into Webster Parish and Claiborne Parish.
