2011 Map of Havens

About this map

Silver Creek and Prairie Creek define the hydrologic character of this Merrick County landscape, winding eastward across a strictly organized section-line grid. The settlement of Havens sits in the southeastern corner, serving as a focal point where 29th Rd and X Rd converge near the railroad corridor. The map reveals the precise geometry of early 21st-century Nebraska agriculture, with a dense network of local routes such as A Rd, Y Rd, and 23rd Rd providing access to the fertile plains between the two watercourses. This layout illustrates a transition from traditional township structures to the modern rural road system that supports the region's ranching and farming operations.
