About this map

The low-lying coastal prairie of the Calcasieu Parish Cameron Parish border is defined here by a network of drainage canals and agricultural roads. The settlement of Holmwood sits in the northern section, surrounded by a landscape organized into large rectangular parcels typical of Southwest Louisiana's rice and cattle country. This 2020 survey illustrates the modern configuration of rural infrastructure, where family-named thoroughfares like Rossignol Rd and Fruge Rd intersect with industrial water management features such as the North Canal and Jacques Coulee. The topography is notably flat, punctuated only by the subtle elevation of the Plateau Petit Bois. To the south, aviation interests are represented by the Bruce Beard Airport, while the heavy influence of the regional agricultural economy is visible through specialized routes like Rice Field Rd and Pine Pasture Rd.
