About this map

The town of Greenwood serves as a primary hub in this Caddo Parish landscape, situated just west of Shreveport. This 2012 survey illustrates the suburban expansion of the region, where numerous residential developments such as Twilight Meadows, Timberlane, and Deer Creek Estates have established a grid-like footprint across the northwestern terrain. This residential growth is contrasted by institutional and industrial sites, including the Caddo Parish Penal Farm and the Greenwood Gas and Oil Field to the west.

Evidence of the area's older rural character remains at Hicks Crossing and along the southern reaches of Boggy Bayou. Infrastructure and community landmarks like the Greenwood Lookout Tower, Lincoln Memorial Park, and the small settlement of Flournoy provide specific points of interest for local historians. The presence of Lake Hayes and numerous small ponds interspersed with a dense network of roads like Jefferson Paige Rd reflects the modern transition from open land to a developed community.
