2011 Map of Shelton

About this map

The settlement of Shelton occupies the southwestern portion of this Platte Valley landscape, anchored by the Shelton Post Office and a grid of streets including E 2nd St and 9th St. The surrounding Buffalo County terrain is defined by the parallel courses of the Wood River and Prairie Creek, which trend northeast across a network of section-line roads. A significant historical corridor is preserved in the alignment of W Old Military Rd, which follows the northern bank of the river through the center of the sheet. The spatial organization of the area reflects its agricultural heritage, with long north-south routes like Wiseman Rd and S 190th Rd providing access to the fertile valley floor. Modern institutional presence is noted at Campus Dr, while residential and service roads like W Burmood Rd and W Holling Rd branch out from the town center.
