2016 Map of Hancock

About this map

Hancock sits at the northern edge of this prairie landscape, organized around a grid of streets including Pacific Ave and Atlantic Ave. The town’s position along the rail corridor is reflected in its layout, with the Old Hwy 9 Twp Rd paralleling the tracks toward the southeast. Beyond the residential center, the terrain is defined by an extensive network of drainage and agricultural management, most notably the Judicial Ditch Number Nine which cuts through the southern sections. This 2016 survey captures the transition between the developed hub of Hancock and the surrounding rural stretches of Stevens and Swift counties. To the west, Byrne Lake provides a natural landmark amidst the section lines of the township grid, while a rigorous system of county roads, such as Co Hwy 8 and Co Hwy 1, facilitates travel across the agricultural heartland.
