2020 Map of Hamlin

About this map

Hamlin serves as a central point of settlement within this rural landscape, situated near the boundary between Sargent Co and Richland Co. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Wild Rice River, which meanders through a prairie environment marked by numerous small wetlands and basins. This area is characterized by a strong historical religious presence, evidenced by the multiple burial grounds including the Immanuel Lutheran Church Cem, Immanuel South Cem, and the Hamlin Cem. The road network follows a strict section-line grid, typical of the Great Plains' development, with primary local routes like Co Rd 1 and Co Rd 14 connecting scattered farmsteads. Natural water features such as Berre Lake and Murach Lake provide distinct landmarks amidst the agricultural fields.
