2021 Map of Houlton South

About this map

The Meduxnekeag River and its southern branch wind through this northern borderland, anchoring a landscape defined by small agrarian settlements and the international boundary. In the north, the street grid of Houlton gives way to outlying communities like Carys Mills and East Hodgdon. This 2021 update illustrates the enduring layout of the region's agricultural past, where family-named landmarks like Jackins Settlement and Westford Hill persist alongside modern infrastructure. Notable local history sites include the Union Church Cem and Hodgdon Cem, which sit among a network of brooks such as Pearce Brook and Whirly Brook. The eastern edge of the quadrangle is defined by the straight line of the United States of America Canada border, while the Houlton International Airport serves as a prominent modern landmark near the edge of town.
