2015 Map of Lathrop

About this map

The San Joaquin River meanders through the heart of this Central Valley landscape, defining the western edge of Lathrop and shaping the agricultural character of Roberts Island. In this 2015 snapshot of San Joaquin County development, the expansion of Manteca and West Manteca is visible alongside established transportation corridors. The map records a complex hydraulic network where the Old River, Paradise Cut, and Tom Paine Slough create a labyrinth of waterways south of Mossdale. This interplay of river management and suburban growth is further evidenced by Oakwood Lake and the various sloughs, including Walthall Slough, which remain critical to the region's drainage and irrigation. To the southwest, the small settlement of Banta sits near the intersection of rail and road, representing the area's deeper agricultural roots amidst modern infrastructure.
