2012 Map of Sunset

About this map

Grand Coteau and Sunset anchor the center of this landscape, where the long-established settlements of St. Landry Parish meet the energy industry of the early 21st century. The map illustrates a dense network of local roads and parish routes, including Sugar Mill Rd and Flagstation Rd, which hint at the agricultural and rail origins of these communities. The eastern edge is defined by the winding course of Bayou Teche, while the surrounding terrain is heavily marked by industrial activity, including the Port Barre Oil Field and the Shuteston Oil and Gas Field.
