2017 Map of Holdrege East

About this map

Holdrege serves as the primary hub for this portion of Phelps County, showcasing a dense grid of streets and avenues that transition into the sprawling agricultural landscape of south-central Nebraska. The area's dependence on water management is evident through the winding path of the Phelps County Canal and the natural drainage of Sacramento Cr. Small communities like Funk and Sacramento appear as quiet clusters among the section lines, while aviation needs are met at Brewster Field northeast of the main town site. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds, including Prairie Home Cem, Bethel Cem, and Prairie Cem, which anchor the rural surroundings. The southern portion of the map is defined by natural lowlands such as Richardson Lagoon, illustrating the varied prairie hydrology that exists alongside an extensive network of county roads.
