2020 Map of Homan

About this map

The winding Red River defines this riverine landscape at the border of Miller and Little River counties. The complex hydrology of the floodplain is evident in the many oxbows and remnant water bodies like Horseshoe Lake, Old River Lake, and Tobe Lake. The settlement at Homan serves as a local anchor along East Broad Street, while the small community of Paup sits further south near Paup Cemetery. This area reflects a long history of water management and agricultural land use, with features like Gillespie Ditch and Homan Ditch draining the low-lying terrain near Bois d'Arc Bayou. Transportation is oriented toward the river crossings and rural routes like Little River 295 Road and LR 70, which connect the scattered homesteads of Temple and the surrounding bottomlands.
