About this map

Wheatland serves as the primary hub in this corner of Yuba County, situated just north of the Bear River as it moves toward the Central Valley. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways and irrigation paths, including Grasshopper Slough, Best Slough, and Dry Cr, which carve through the agricultural holdings of the region. Notable family operations such as Durst Ranch and Boardman Ranch are documented alongside transportation markers like Erle Siding.

Military activity is prominent to the north at the Beale Air Force Base Airport, while local history is anchored by the Wheatland Cem and the settlement at Horstville. The road network, including Ostrom RD and Spenceville RD, reflects the transition from town center to expansive rural acreage, showing the precise layout of properties and rural routes that have supported the local economy for generations.
