2013 Map of Attica

About this map

The Wabash River serves as the central artery for this region of Fountain County, carving a wide valley that defines the local settlement patterns. Along its banks, the established community of Attica stands as a primary hub, while smaller river-oriented hamlets like Independence and Riverside sit directly on its north and south shores respectively. The map captures a mix of riverbottom agriculture and upland plateaus, punctuated by drainage features such as Kickapoo Cr and Big Shawnee Cr. Aviation and local transport are represented by the Riley Field Airport and a grid of rural routes including E Independence Rd. Farther out from the river, small clusters and crossroads like Winthrop, Banning Corner, and Vine mark the transition into the broader Indiana agricultural landscape. Notable geographic landmarks like Opossum Hollow and Kates Lake provide specific points of reference for local historians and land surveyors.
