2011 Map of Kuroki

About this map

Kuroki sits near the Canadian border in Bottineau County, defining the small settlement character of the North Dakota plains. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details a landscape governed by a precise section-line road network, where routes like 109th St NW and 20th Ave NW carve the prairie into predictable rectangles. The terrain is marked by numerous small, scattered wetlands and depressions typical of the regional geography, interspersed between the gravel roads. While the area is largely rural, the presence of Kuroki at the intersection of local thoroughfares highlights a moment in time before further rural consolidation, offering a clear record of the local infrastructure and land divisions used for agricultural management in the early twenty-first century.
