1952 Map of Saxon

About this map

Agricultural life in the Sacramento Valley defines this landscape, where the Sacramento Northern railroad cuts a diagonal line through the heart of the region. The map highlights a series of established estates and local nodes, including Glide Ranch, Maxwell Ranch, and the small settlement at Saxon. To the east, the massive engineering of the Yolo By-Pass dominates the terrain, designed to manage seasonal overflow from the river systems. Near the northern boundary, the Military Reservation sits adjacent to the Tremont Cem, indicating a long-standing community presence.
