2018 Map of Vinton

About this map

Vinton serves as the primary hub of this Calcasieu Parish landscape, where the flat coastal plains of southwestern Louisiana are defined by an intricate network of drainage and irrigation. The town's grid is bounded by Hampton Coulee to the north and the Vinton Drainage Canal to the south, reflecting the engineering required to manage this low-lying terrain. To the east, the settlement of Edgerly sits near the intersection of the Edgerly Cutoff and the railroad, while the southern reaches feature the small community of Ged near the banks of Ged Lake. The prevalence of named waterways such as Coon Gully, Gum Gully, and the Sabine Canal underscores the vital importance of water management for the region's agricultural and industrial infrastructure during this 21st-century period.
