2024 Map of Amboy

About this map

The Green River meanders across this Lee County landscape, anchoring a region defined by its small agricultural hubs and complex wetland systems. In Amboy, a dense grid of streets like W Main St and S Appleton Ave reflects the town's established layout near the historic junction with US Rte 52. The surrounding countryside is dotted with a high concentration of burial grounds, including Prairie Repose Cem and the Mormon Cem, offering significant value for genealogical research. To the south, a cluster of modern recreational water bodies such as Woodhaven Lake and Bass Lake contrasts with the specialized ecological labels found further north. Features like Earth Star Flats, Fifty Turtlehead Pond, and Bird Song Savanna indicate a landscape carefully managed for conservation and biodiversity alongside traditional aviation at Taylor Airport.
