About this map

Strasburg serves as the focal point of this agricultural landscape in Emmons County during the early 1970s. The village is tightly clustered around the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad line, which cuts a straight path southeast through the prairie. Local heritage is clearly marked by the Reform Cem on the southern edge of the settlement and the Lutheran Cem to the north, reflecting the community's ancestral roots.

The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of Beaver Creek and the presence of Baumgartner Lake. Cultural and recreational markers of the era include a Drive-in Theater and Seeman Park in the northern portion of the survey. The proximity of the Linton Municipal Airport and several Gravel Pit sites suggests a mix of transportation and local resource extraction supporting the region's economy at this time.
