2018 Map of Audubon

About this map

Audubon serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Audubon County, where the street grid is clearly defined by routes like Broadway St and Chicago St. The surrounding countryside is shaped by the winding course of the East Nishnabotna River and its many tributaries, including Bluegrass Cr and Elkhorn Cr. This topography dictated the placement of small rural settlements such as Hamlin, Nishna, and Sharon, which sit amidst a network of section-line roads. For the local historian, the map preserves the locations of several community landmarks, notably the Arlington Heights Cem and the Audubon County Airport. The distribution of burial sites like the Danish Cem and Saint Patricks Cem reflects the distinct cultural and denominational pockets that established these farming townships.
