2021 Map of Selby

About this map

Selby serves as the focal point of this Northern Plains landscape, situated at the intersection of a vast grid of section roads and the regional railway corridor. As the seat of Walworth County, the town is anchored by the Walworth County Courthouse, surrounded by a residential street plan including Scranton St and Bangor St. The surrounding countryside reveals the hydrology of the Missouri Plateau, characterized by the meandering Hiddenwood Cr and localized basins such as Sand Lake and Little Sand Lake. Evidence of early settlement and community life is found in the rural cemeteries that dot the landscape, specifically Bethlehem Cem to the north and Bethany Cem near the western boundary. The presence of the Blue Blanket Lakebed suggests the seasonal nature of water in this semi-arid environment, where agriculture and transit are defined by the rigid alignment of 130th St and 304th Ave.
