2012 Map of Scott City

About this map

White Woman Cr meanders across this High Plains landscape, leading toward the distinct geological depression of White Woman Basin south of the city. The map highlights a highly structured section-line road network, such as N Kansas Rd and W Road 130, which defines the agricultural character of Scott County. In the northern portion of the sheet, the city core is well-established, featuring the Scott County Fairgrounds and the Scott City Municipal Airport. Genealogists and local historians will find the Scott County Cem clearly marked along S Kansas Rd. Further south, the small settlements of Hutchins and Shallow Water sit along the primary north-south transit corridor, illustrating the dispersed nature of Western Kansas communities during this era. Natural features like Rocky Draw and Lion Cr provide the only breaks in the geometric precision of the township and range survey lines.
