About this map

Waukomis serves as the primary hub in this southern Garfield County landscape, situated along the north-south transport corridor that defines the local economy. The area is characterized by its organized grid of section roads like Richland Ave and W Southgate Rd, which bridge numerous small waterways including Turkey Creek and the curiously named Hell and Gone Creek. The map documents a significant aviation footprint, featuring Vance Air Force Base alongside private facilities such as Traynor Ranch Airport and the Anderson Landing Strip.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the distribution of community landmarks, from the Waukomis Cemetery to several rural educational sites. The presence of Turkey Creek School, Happy Valley School, Sunnyside School, and Highland School indicates the historical distribution of rural populations across the prairies. In the north, the Meadowlake Reservoir and its associated Meadowlake Park Lake Dam represent managed water resources near the settlement of Imo.
