2014 Map of Perryville

About this map

Perryville and Liberty anchor a landscape defined by the intersection of desert drainage and agricultural engineering in the West Valley. The southern portion of this region is shaped by the Gila River, where the Buckeye Canal and Extension Canal trace the historic commitment to irrigation that sustained these rural communities. To the north, the modern expansion of Goodyear and Buckeye begins to overprint the traditional grid, though features like the Phoenix Goodyear Airport and Estrella Camp signal the area's increasing urbanization. Numerous washes, including Jackrabbit Trail Wash and Tuthill Dike Wash, cut through the terrain, illustrating the natural hydrological patterns that dictate development in this part of Maricopa County. This survey reflects a moment when large-scale ranching and farming operations met the growing suburban reach of the Phoenix metropolitan area.
