1980 Map of Sac City East

About this map

Sac City serves as the focal point of this 1980 survey, situated at the confluence of civic infrastructure and the meandering North Raccoon River. The town's grid is dense with local history markers, including the Courthouse, Library, and a central Fairground. To the south and east, the landscape transitions into agricultural townships like Douglas and Williams, drained by a network of waterways including Cedar Creek and Prairie Creek. The presence of several burial grounds, such as Oakland Cem and Cedar Cem, provides valuable points of interest for genealogical research. Transportation corridors are well-defined, notably by the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad line and the Sac City Municipal Airport. Numerous gravel pits dot the terrain, particularly near the river and Hagge County Park, indicating the localized resource extraction that supported the area's development during this era.
