2018 Map of Meade

About this map

The city of Meade serves as the focal point of this southwestern Kansas landscape, positioned where the High Plains transition into the Artesian Valley. This region is defined by the winding course of Crooked Cr, which creates a distinct marshy hydrologic pattern across the valley floor. The town's grid is well-established, featuring core streets like Kansas St, W Carthage St, and Green St. Outside the residential center, the land is meticulously partitioned by a network of rural roads such as H Rd and P Rd, reflecting the enduring public land survey system. Local history is anchored by sites such as Lockhart Cem and Graceland Cem, while the Meade Municipal Airport on the southern edge of town indicates the area's modern infrastructure. The hydrology of Sand Cr and the seasonal wetlands in the valley highlight the importance of water management in this prairie environment.
