New Effington serves as the central hub of this Roberts County landscape, characterized by a regular grid of section-line roads and numerous glacial wetlands. The map is particularly notable for its high density of rural burial grounds, providing a significant resource for genealogical research. These sites include Old Effington Cem, New Effington Cem, and others such as Zions Cem, Scandia Cem, Bethania Cem, and Faith Cem distributed across the prairie. The topography is dotted with water features like Dobberstien Slough and Knebel Slough, reflecting the typical hydrology of the Lake Traverse District. Local transit is defined by a network of numbered avenues and streets, with Co Rd 8 cutting diagonally through the southeastern quadrant of the survey.
