2014 Map of Hazen

About this map

Hazen serves as the central hub of this Prairie County landscape, where the grid of the town site meets the sprawling agricultural and riparian systems of central Arkansas. North of the city, the small settlement of Tarnceville sits near Barnes Cr, illustrating the dispersed residential patterns common to this region. The landscape is heavily defined by its water management and natural drainage, from the wide Wattensaw Bayou in the northeast to several man-made features like Floyds Reservoir and Crowley Lake. Genealogy and local history are anchored by several sites, including Green Grove Cem and Old Bethel Cem, which are tucked away from the main thoroughfares. Transportation and industry are marked by the presence of the Greenwalt Company Airport and the complex network of section-line roads, such as W Country Club Rd and S Whiskey Ln, that provide access to the surrounding farmsteads.
