2021 Map of New Bedford
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
New Bedford and Deer Grove anchor this agricultural landscape at the tri-county junction of Bureau, Lee, and Whiteside Counties. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of water management, where the Green River is supported by a series of engineered waterways including Main Ditch, Baker Cr Ditch, and the Walnut Special Ditch. This infrastructure highlights the region's long-standing commitment to draining the fertile lowlands for cultivation. Local history is preserved at sites like Fairfield Cem and Bowen Cem, while the small settlement of Normandy serves as a secondary crossroads. The presence of private airfields like Woodley 2 Airport and Geldean Airport reflects the modern utility of this wide-open prairie land, which remains largely structured by a rigid grid of rural roads such as Osage Rd and Hurd Rd.
