1954 Map of Stevens

About this map

The Kern River dominates this landscape in Kern County, supporting a complex network of irrigation and industry during the mid-20th century. The industrial character of the region is evident in the sprawling extraction infrastructure, including the Ten Section Oil Field and the Rio Bravo Pumping Sta. Local commerce and transit are centered around settlements like Stevens and Canfield Ranch, both situated along the Southern Pacific rail line. The map captures an era of intensive resource management, where man-made features like the James Canal and Aband Canal crisscross the terrain to divert water from the river. Significant local landmarks such as the Ten Section Refinery and Buena Vista Sch serve as focal points for the workforce and residents living within this active petroleum and agricultural corridor.
