About this map

The Floyd River corridor serves as the primary geographic anchor for this part of Woodbury County, flowing south through a landscape where rural township roads meet the advancing northern residential developments of Sioux City. The map documents a cluster of established neighborhoods and smaller communities such as Leeds, Evergreen Village, and Holiday Village, which sit alongside the river valley. Further north, the unincorporated community of James and the edge of Hinton reveal the area's transition into more open agricultural land.

Genealogists and local historians will note significant landmarks like the Hungerford Cemetery in the northeast and the spiritual site at Trinity Heights. The survey details an extensive transportation network, including major thoroughfares like Floyd Blvd and Smith River Rd, which follow the river's natural path. This 2011 survey captures the area just as suburban expansion began to more fully integrate these outlying settlements into the greater metropolitan fabric.
