2011 Map of Venango

About this map

Venango stands as the primary hub of activity in this 2011 survey of the western Nebraska borderlands. Located in Perkins County, the village is centered around the Venango Post Office and a grid of residential streets like Mercer St. The surrounding landscape is defined by the gradual, intermittent flow of Spring Creek and Sand Creek, which carve subtle drainage patterns across the high plains terrain. This map captures the intersection of rural life and systematic land organization, with a dense network of county roads such as Co Rd-18 and Co Rd-57 forming a strict mile-by-mile lattice. The survey documents the area just as it appeared in the early 21st century, illustrating the enduring agricultural layout of the Nebraska-Colorado line.
