2011 Map of Omaha South

About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through the heart of the eastern Nebraska urban corridor, defining the sharp bends at Omaha Bend and Gibson Bend. This landscape transitions from the dense urban grid of Omaha and South Omaha into the residential and academic reaches of Bellevue. The map reveals a high concentration of local history markers, particularly through its numerous religious and ethnic burial grounds such as the Bohemian Cemetery and Beth Hamedrosh Hagodel Cemetery. Institutional footprints are visible at Grace University and Bellevue University, while the western periphery maintains pockets of rural character near the Bellevue Berry Farm. Local transportation and commerce are anchored by the Pierce Street Station and Ruckl Airport, while the hydrology is dominated by the Papillion Creek and Big Papillion Creek systems that drain the varied terrain of Douglas and Sarpy counties.
