2014 Map of Laurel SE

About this map

The rolling agricultural uplands where Cedar, Wayne, and Dixon counties meet are defined by a strict section-line road grid and the drainage of several prairie creeks. In the early 21st century, this landscape remains primarily rural, with the terrain carved by the meandering courses of Dog Creek, Baker Creek, and Dry Creek. The map documents the precise intersection of these county jurisdictions, showing how local infrastructure like 865th Road and 577th Avenue navigates the undulating topography. This survey provides a clear view of the rural settlement patterns in northeast Nebraska, where the land is divided into systematic agricultural blocks between the seasonal waterways of Deer Creek and its tributaries.
