2009 Map of Ruleton

About this map

Ruleton sits as the primary point of settlement in this High Plains landscape of western Kansas, positioned along Ruleton Ave just north of the major transportation corridors. The map reveals a transition in regional travel, showing the path of I 70 running parallel to the older route of Old US Hwy 24. This spatial arrangement underscores how modern interstate development bypassed or integrated with existing local networks. The terrain is defined by the subtle drainage patterns of Middle Beaver Creek in the north and South Beaver Creek in the southern portion of the quadrangle. These waterways provide a natural contrast to the rigid grid of county roads, such as Co RD 7 and Co RD 6, which organize the surrounding agricultural land.
