About this map

The Vermilion River bisects this landscape south of Lafayette, serving as a defining corridor for local commerce and geography. The settlement of Milton is established along its banks, where the Woodlawn Bridge provides a vital crossing point. To the east, the community of Youngsville shows expansion along the Chemin Metairie Pkwy, while Maurice sits at the western edge of the parish line.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of family-named burial grounds across these prairies and bayous, including Broussard Cem, Picard Cem, and Bodoin Cem. The complex drainage network of the Acadiana region is clearly documented through features like Anselm Coulee and Long Pointe Couley, illustrating how the land has been managed for agriculture and habitation. Small landmarks like Greene Air Park further define the 21st-century character of this rural and suburbanizing area.
