What the ground in Wickenburg is like

The USDA soil survey rates mapped ground in Wickenburg for septic drain-field suitability across roughly 27 square miles. About 90% of the rated ground is classed "Very limited", meaning the soil has one or more features unfavorable for a conventional drain field, and the limits generally cannot be overcome without major soil reclamation, special design or expensive installation.

In Wickenburg, the leading limit is slow water movement: effluent does not drain through the soil fast enough, so a conventional field can back up or pond when the ground cannot keep pace. The survey flags that limit on about 61% of the rated ground here.

The limiting features the survey records most often here:

• Slow water movement61.4%
• Slope45.9%
• Depth to bedrock19.0%
• Depth to cemented pan8.8%

This is survey data for mapped areas, not a substitute for a site evaluation on your own lot. Conditions on a single parcel can differ from the map.
