About this map

Coconino National Forest envelopes the western half of the city, providing a backdrop of high-altitude terrain dominated by Woody Mtn and A 1 Mtn. The urban landscape is anchored by the historic Coconino County Courthouse and the sprawling Northern Arizona University-Flagstaff Campus, which transitions into the city's eastern residential areas like McMillan Mesa and Switzer Mesa. The transit-oriented nature of the high desert is evident in the path of the BNSF Railway through Riordan and the heavy concentration of infrastructure near Flagstaff Pulliam Airport.

Water management in this arid environment is highlighted by numerous artificial reservoirs and natural features such as A One Lake and the Flagstaff City Reservoirs. Key cultural sites including Citizens Cem and the Cogdill Center sit within the established street grid, while the Arizona National Scenic Trl weaves through the eastern mesa edges. This 2021 update documents the intersection of modern expansion and the geographic constraints of the Arizona Divide.
