2012 Map of Herndon

About this map

San Joaquin River waters cut through the northern edge of this 2012 survey, defining the boundary where the agricultural grid of the Central Valley meets expanding residential developments. The area is anchored by the historic settlement of Herndon, situated where Golden State Blvd crosses the river. South of the river, the map details a dense network of suburban streets and established agricultural avenues, including the notable Forestiere Underground Gardens near Highway City. The landscape reflects a shift from purely rural origins, evidenced by the large-scale grid of Barstow and the presence of the Riverside Municipal Golf Course, toward the modern residential expansion seen in the southeast. Significant infrastructure like the Herndon Canal and arterial routes such as W Shaw Ave and W McKinley Ave illustrate the complex water management and transportation systems required for this productive region.
