2013 Map of Allison

About this map

Allison serves as the primary hub in this portion of Butler County, oriented around a grid of numbered streets just south of the Allison Municipal Airport. The landscape is defined by the subtle drainage patterns of the eastern Iowa plains, where the Shell Rock River and its numerous tributaries, including Coldwater Cr and Palmer Cr, dictate the local topography. This early 21st-century survey illustrates the persistent agricultural grid, with long straight stretches of Ivy Ave and Keystone Ave segmenting the countryside between small rural clusters like Wilmar and Pilot Rock. The map details a transition point where smaller watercourses like Kilson Cr and Dailey Cr feed into the regional drainage network, reflecting the area's deep-rooted connection to its waterways and fertile terrain.
