2014 Map of New Rockford NE

About this map

The James River snakes through the center of this landscape, its winding course defining the topography east of New Rockford. This portion of Eddy County is characterized by a grid of rural sections, where the low-lying Tiffany Flats sit between the river valley and the northern prairie. The settlement pattern is anchored by the edge of New Rockford in the west and the small community of Dundas to the southeast, connected by a network of county roads such as 71st Ave NE and 16th St NE. To the south, the wetland area of Schwoebel Slough provides a notable change in terrain. The convergence of Us-281 and Nd-15 near the river crossing highlights the area's role as a regional transit point for the agricultural heartland of central North Dakota.
