2018 Map of Lancaster West

About this map

Lancaster and the surrounding high desert communities of Quartz Hill and Palmdale are captured here in their modern urban and suburban layout. The landscape is defined by a dense, systematic grid of roads such as W Ave G and W Jackman St, which extend toward the rising slopes of Portal Ridge in the southwest corner. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the General Wm J Fox Airfield, a significant regional aviation hub. This survey illustrates the intense development of the Antelope Valley, where educational institutions like Antelope Valley College and Antelope Valley Medical College anchor the residential sprawl. Smaller landmarks, such as the Lancaster Cem and the ephemeral Amargosa Cr, provide points of interest for local historians studying the growth and infrastructure of Los Angeles County's northern corridor.
