2020 Map of York

About this map

York serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, situated near the intersection of Main St and York Rd. Located on the boundary where Pierce Co meets Benson Co, the settlement is defined by its grid-iron street pattern and proximity to the regional transport corridor. The surrounding countryside is a mosaic of glacial depressions and wetlands, characteristic of the North Dakota pothole region, with scattered water bodies interspersed among agricultural sections. To the north of the village, York Cem sits as a quiet landmark for local genealogists. The road network, including Beaver Rd and numerous numbered section-line avenues like 53rd Ave NE, illustrates the orderly township and range system that organized the Great Plains for settlement and farming.
