About this map

Forbes sits directly on the border of North Dakota and South Dakota, serving as a focal point for the surrounding prairie landscape in 2018. The town's layout is centered on Main St and 3rd Ave, with a local Po serving the community near the junction of Co Hwy 2. This borderland character is reinforced by the presence of the Dickey Co McPherson Co line, which marks the transition between states and jurisdictions.

North of the settlement, the landscape is defined by natural drainage features like Webber Gulch and Hoevens Gulch. The Forbes Cem is located just outside the main residential area, providing a primary point of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The map details a geometric grid of rural roads, such as 98th St SE and 73rd Ave SE, illustrating the organized agricultural development of this interstate region.
