About this map

Boaz serves as the central hub for this portion of Richland County, situated at the junction of Mill Cr and its tributaries. The landscape is defined by a dense network of family-operated agricultural properties, reflecting a deeply rooted dairy and stock farming tradition in southern Wisconsin. Notable landholdings such as the Springdale Stock and Dairy Farm and the Round Barn Stock Farm illustrate the specialized nature of the local economy during this era.

Terrain features like Wild Rose Ridge, Red Hill, and Maple Ridge create a series of hollows and valleys that dictate the placement of rural homesteads. Significant sites for local history and genealogy include the Beaumont Homestead and Hansons Homestead Stock and Grain Farm, while the settlement of Five Points marks a key navigational crossroads to the west. The drainage of W Br Mill Cr and E Br Mill Cr further sculpts this driftless area, shaping the layout of modern roads and historic farm boundaries.
