About this map

Omaha's southwestern expansion dominates this 2017 landscape, where the urban grid of Douglas Co meets the rapidly developing residential corridors of Sarpy Co. The map details a dense network of suburban communities, including Millard, Ralston, La Vista, and Papillion, all woven together by major transportation arteries like I-80 and W Center Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial grounds, such as Evergreen Memorial Park Cem and Calvary Cem, alongside the more rural Portal Cem near the historic Portal area. The hydrology of the region is defined by the Big Papillion Cr and its tributaries, which are increasingly managed through engineered systems like the Frederick Street Drain. Recreational landmarks such as Walnut Creek Lake and Shadow Lake reflect the modern landscape's balance of water management and community space.
