2017 Map of Princeton West

About this map

Princeton and Jacinto anchor this landscape in Dallas County, where the creek systems of the Ouachita River basin dictate the local geography. The area is defined by a dense network of slow-moving water and wetlands, including Alsobrook Slough, Hickory Flats Slough, and Black Slough, which weave through the timberlands. These drainages, such as W Fork Tulip Cr and White Oak Cr, historically shaped the settlement patterns and road placements in this part of Arkansas. Local heritage is preserved in several small burial grounds scattered across the terrain, notably Henderson Cem near the northern boundary and Taylor Cem further south. The map provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure, from the path of Hall Creek Rd to the various branches like Futch Br and Cooker Br that feed the larger tulip-named tributaries.
