About this map

Hesston sits at the heart of this Central Kansas landscape, straddling the border between McPherson and Harvey Counties. This modern survey documents the established local infrastructure of the 21st century, centered around the Hesston Coll campus and its surrounding residential streets like W Knott St and W Randall St. The town's layout reflects a transition from a strictly grid-based agricultural economy to a growing community integrated with major transit corridors.

The surrounding rural sections are defined by a network of family-named roads and drainage systems, including the branching of W Emma Cr, Middle Emma Cr, and Dry Cr. Landmarks such as the Freedom Cem to the north and the local golf course suggest the enduring community anchors of the area. The map traces the precise routes of traditional gravel ways like Buckskin Rd and Cherokee Rd, which continue to define the square-mile sections established by the original Public Land Survey System.
