About this map

The Mermentau River snakes through the center of this mid-century survey, defining the boundaries of Acadia, Jefferson Davis, and Vermilion Parishes. In Jennings, the local landscape is shaped by the energy industry and transportation, featuring the Jennings Airport, a Drive-in Theater, and the Southern Pacific railroad corridor. Further south, the town of Lake Arthur sits at the edge of its namesake Lake Arthur, where the wetlands transition into the coastal prairie.
