2010 Map of Bingham

About this map

Shenandoah occupies the northwestern corner of this Page County landscape, where the town street grid meets the expansive agricultural reaches of southwestern Iowa. The terrain is defined by a series of parallel waterways, including Fisher Creek, West Tarkio Creek, and Middle Tarkio Creek, which dictate the placement of farms and section roads. Small settlements such as Bingham and Norwich serve as landmarks along the section-line roads, illustrating the persistent rural settlement pattern of the early twenty-first century. One of the few non-agricultural landmarks is the Martin Cemetery, situated near the banks of West Tarkio Creek. The map also traces modern infrastructure like the Anna Crose Hwy, showing how contemporary transportation routes follow the established grid of local roads like A Ave and B Ave.
