2011 Map of Stirum

About this map

Stirum sits at the center of this Sargent County landscape, characterized by the precise section-line road grid of the North Dakota plains. The settlement is positioned along 83rd St SE, with local streets like Wunderlich St S providing the internal structure for the small community. Away from the central hub, the terrain is defined by its agricultural layout, where arterial routes such as 125th Ave SE and 121st Ave SE stretch across the prairie to connect isolated farmsteads and rural properties. Evidence of the area's earlier history is preserved at Harlem Cemetery, located south of the main townsite near the intersection of 86th St SE. This 2011 survey captures a quiet period in the northern plains, where the land is strictly organized by a network of numbered avenues and streets that reflect a century of homesteading and rural development.
