2021 Map of Newark

About this map

Newark sits at the intersection of Newark Rd and 421st Ave, a community straddling the border between South Dakota and North Dakota. This prairie landscape is defined by the rigid grid of section lines and range townships, where the border between Sargent Co and Marshall Co forms a central east-west axis. To the north, the settlement of Brampton is established near Co Rd 5, with the Brampton Cem serving as a local landmark for genealogists. The terrain is notably dotted with numerous depressions and wetlands typical of the Glacial Lake Agassiz region, influencing the path of local roads like 122nd Ave SE and 101st St SE. The map illustrates the persistent structure of agricultural land divisions and the sparse, purposeful placement of rural infrastructure in the eastern Dakotas.
