2020 Map of Lacombe

About this map

Lacombe and the surrounding marshlands of St. Tammany Parish are defined by the intricate waterways that drain into Lake Pontchartrain. Along the banks of Lacombe Bayou, the settlement patterns reflect a deep history of local families, evidenced by a high density of small burial grounds such as Lafontaine Cem, the Louis Cousin Cem, and Williams Cem. These family-named landmarks are concentrated near the community of Oaklawn and the winding course of the bayou. To the west, the landscape transitions toward the Big Branch area and Goose Point, where the terrain becomes increasingly defined by wetlands and smaller tributaries like Bayou Des Mats. The road network, including historic routes like Pontchartrain Rd and Napoleon Rd, provides a framework for the residential growth extending outward from the traditional center of Lacombe.
