About this map

Keo and the surrounding Lonoke County lowlands are defined by a complex network of bayous and drainage systems that support the region's agricultural character. This area, just north of the Arkansas River, features several small airfields tailored to rural operations, including the Bredlow Airfield and Moore Farm Airport. The landscape is etched with old watercourses like Wabbaseka Bayou and North Bayou, which wind through the flat terrain toward Clear Lake.

Settlement patterns follow the established road grid and natural levees, with local history anchored at Alexander Cemetery near Estes and the Keo Cemetery on the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Significant infrastructure, such as the Little Rock Gillett Levee and Bredlow Reservoir, illustrates the ongoing efforts to manage water across the fertile Possum Flat. Named rural intersections like Wampoo and Bredlow Corner remain as focal points for this farming community.
