About this map

Bement serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Piatt County, characterized by a grid of rural roads and the winding course of the Lake Fork. The village layout is concentrated around E Wilson St and includes a local Park, reflecting the traditional organization of a Midwestern prairie town. To the north lies the Bement Cem, a key site for local genealogical research, while the small settlement of Bodmann appears to the south along the N 900 East Rd corridor.

The terrain is largely shaped by drainage features such as Ditch Number 4, which support the surrounding farmland. Aviation history is represented by the Triple Creek Airport located southeast of the main township. This survey captures the enduring rural character of the region, where a dense network of county roads like CR-7 and CR-700 connects isolated farmsteads to the commercial and social center of Bement.
