1981 Map of Palermo

About this map

Palermo is the central hub of this North Dakota landscape, situated along the Burlington Northern railroad line during the early 1980s. The town's layout includes essential community landmarks such as Faith Ch and Rest Haven Cem, providing a detailed look at the settlement's social and historical fabric. The surrounding prairie is defined by its glacial pothole geology, characterized by numerous small, scattered water bodies and significant conservation tracts designated as the National Waterfowl Production Area. To the northwest, Clear Water stands out among the wetlands. The terrain is marked by township divisions including Redmond, McGahan, and Burke, with the local economy's reliance on raw materials evidenced by several Gravel Pits distributed across the prairie.
