2016 Map of Hector

About this map

The prairie town of Hector stands as a focal point in this portion of Renville County, organized around a structured grid of residential streets including Birch Ave E, Cedar Ave E, and Ash Ave W. This landscape is defined by its extensive agricultural drainage system, a network of engineered waterways such as County Ditch Number One Hundred Three, County Ditch Number Six, and Judicial Ditch Number Fifteen. These features, alongside the meandering path of High Island Cr, illustrate the region's long-standing commitment to land reclamation for farming. Local history and genealogy are preserved in the community's burial grounds, including the Saint John's Catholic Cem, Hector Cem, and the German Lutheran Cem found further south. The Hector Municipal Airport marks the modern transportation infrastructure that complements the regional road network of Co Rd 4 and 740th Ave.
