2024 Map of Pekin

About this map

Pekin serves as the central hub of this North Dakota landscape, situated along a grid of section-line roads and the aptly named Railroad Ave. The town is supported by local landmarks like the Pekin Cem to its west, while the surrounding terrain is defined by its significant water features and conservation lands. To the north lies the expansive Stump Lake, while the Sheyenne River meanders through the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. Conservation is a notable theme in this region, anchored by the Nelson County Waterfowl Production Area, which preserves the prairie pothole ecosystem between 105th Ave NE and 107th Ave NE. The drainage patterns are further marked by the presence of Silver Creek, which flows through the eastern townships, illustrating the transition between cultivated farmland and protected wetlands.
