About this map

Lexa and the surrounding Phillips County agricultural landscape are captured here just before the close of the 2010s. The map illustrates a network of small settlements and rural crossroads including Barton, Poplar Grove, and Walnut Corner. This region is defined by its deep roots, visible through numerous family and community burial grounds such as Saint James Cem, Tucker Grove Cem, and the uniquely named Hell Cem.

Transportation patterns are dominated by local routes like Old Little Rock Rd and State Hwy 316, which connect these dispersed communities. The drainage of the lowlands is handled by several winding watercourses, most notably Lick Creek and Big Creek. The presence of Lexa Junction and North Lexa suggests the historical importance of the railroad corridor in shaping the development of these Arkansas townships.
