2021 Map of Upland

About this map

Upland occupies the high ground of the Nebraska plains, positioned along the county line between Kearney Co and Franklin Co. This rural landscape is defined by the headwaters of W Br Thompson Cr and the Little Blue River, which carve subtle drainage patterns across the agricultural sections. The village of Upland is structured around a traditional grid including Belfield St and Midland St, with the Upland Cem located just to the south. Small-scale water management is evident through features like Olson Reservoir and Bertrand Reservoir, which support the region's farming economy. The map illustrates a strict section-line road network, such as A Rd and V Rd, characteristic of the Great Plains' development during the twentieth century.
