2011 Map of Hord

About this map

Hord occupies a central position within this Merrick County landscape, where the flat agricultural terrain of the Platte River valley is defined by a rigid section-line road grid. The hydrology of the area is dominated by the meandering courses of Prairie Creek and Silver Creek, which break the geometric precision of the surrounding rural infrastructure. This 2011 survey captures the established layout of the region's transportation network, including north-south routes like 14th Rd and 13th Rd that intersect with east-west corridors such as Q Rd and P Rd. Near the center of the quadrangle, Fairview Cemetery stands as a significant local landmark for genealogical research, situated amidst the expansive fields and scattered farmsteads that characterize this portion of Nebraska.
