2024 Map of Ruston East

About this map

Ruston and the surrounding Lincoln Parish landscape are defined by a network of creeks and numerous historic burial grounds that reflect the long-standing community structure of the region. This modern topographic survey highlights the expansion of the area from the larger settlement of Ruston eastward toward Choudrant. The terrain is drained by several watercourses, including Choudrant Creek and Stowe Creek, which create the rolling topography characteristic of this part of Louisiana. Local history is deeply embedded in the land through family and community landmarks such as the George Washington Carver Cem, Zion Travler Cem, and Woods Chapel Cem. The inclusion of the Ruston Regional Airport and various parish roads, such as Mt Harmony Church Rd, illustrates the evolution of local infrastructure and its integration with the established rural settlements of Douglas and the surrounding townships.
