About this map

The Santa Cruz Flats and the Santa Cruz River dominate this mid-century landscape, illustrating the desert settlement patterns of southern Arizona. The city of Tucson serves as a centralized hub, flanked by the sprawling Tucson Mountains and the Saguaro National Monument. To the south, the historic San Xavier Del Bac Mission stands on the San Xavier Indian Reservation, while military and aviation interests are marked by Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and the Sahuarita Bombing and Gunnery Range. Along the northern reaches, irrigation and water management are evident near Eloy and the Picacho Reservoir. The rail infrastructure of the Southern Pacific tracks the path of growth between Casa Grande and the county line, connecting agricultural outposts like Marana and Sahuarita to the larger regional network.
