2018 Map of Rio Vista

About this map

Rio Vista sits at a critical junction in the California Delta, where the Sacramento River meets a complex network of sloughs and reclaimed island tracts. The 2018 landscape is defined by the contrast between the elevated Montezuma Hills to the west and the low-lying agricultural basins of Grand Island and Brannan Island to the east. This period shows the continued importance of maritime infrastructure, specifically the Sacramento River Deep Water Ship Channel and the Rio Vista Bridge connecting Solano Co and Sacramento Co. The map documents the residential expansion of the town, including neighborhoods around Saint Andrews Dr and Summerset Dr, while maintaining traditional landmarks like the Rio Vista Municipal Airport. Waterways such as Cache Slough and Steamboat Slough illustrate the intricate drainage and transport system that has shaped this region of the Central Valley for over a century.
