2018 Map of Joseph City

About this map

Joseph City serves as the primary population center on this landscape, structured by a grid of residential streets like Bushman Ave and Randall Ave north of the primary transit corridor. The Little Colorado River winds through the center of the sheet, bordered by the expansive Obed Meadow to the south. This riparian zone is further defined by several seasonal drainage systems, including Manila Wash, Joseph City Wash, and Tanner Wash, which feed toward the river valley. To the east, Cholla Lake provides a significant water feature adjacent to the rail line leading toward Penzance. The map illustrates the close relationship between the high-desert hydrology and the settlement patterns established along the river's path, showing a mix of established town lots and rural road networks like Territorial Rd and McLaws Rd.
