About this map

The Arkansas River and Little Arkansas River converge near the heart of Wichita, anchoring a landscape that bridges the city's frontier beginnings and its modern academic and civic infrastructure. The presence of Cow Town near the river bend serves as a direct reference to the area's pioneer heritage, while the Sedgwick County Courthouse marks the administrative core. This survey illustrates the dense residential and institutional development of eastern Sedgwick County, featuring prominent campuses such as Wichita State University and Friends University.

A network of historical burial grounds, including Maple Grove Cem, Old Mission Cem, and Wichita Hebrew Cem, provides essential data for genealogical research within the urban grid. The map also captures the enclave of Eastborough and the sprawling industrial areas to the south, where Chisholm Cr and Gypsum Cr drain toward the city's outskirts. This 2022 edition documents the complex intersection of major transportation corridors like I-135 and Us-54 with the established neighborhoods of Kansas's largest city.
