2020 Map of Norma

About this map

Norma serves as the primary settlement on this 2020 map, situated in the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. The landscape is defined by the surveyor’s grid, with the horizontal boundary between Renville Co and Ward Co cutting through the center of the sheet along 90th St NW. This region of the North Dakota plains is characterized by numerous small potholes and wetlands scattered across the farmland, typical of the prairie pothole region. Local infrastructure is anchored by a network of county roads, including Co Hwy 3 and Co Rd 1, which facilitate travel between these agricultural tracts. To the southeast, Bodmer Airport provides a rare point of aviation infrastructure in an otherwise agrarian setting, while a complex of section lines and secondary roads like Co Hwy 2 map out the organized settlement pattern of the modern era.
