2021 Map of Brookline

About this map

Brookline and Republic anchor this landscape southwest of Springfield, where suburban growth meets the agricultural heritage of Greene County. The area is defined by its complex drainage network, featuring the Sac River in the northwest and Wilsons Creek in the southeast, with local landmarks like Dailey Spring and McElhaney Branch carving through the terrain. The transition from rural homesteads to modern infrastructure is visible in the proximity of Springfield-Branson National Airport to older community sites. Genealogists and local historians can trace several burial grounds across the quadrangle, including Brookline Cemetery, Evergreen Cemetery, and Harrington Cemetery. Smaller settlements such as Elwood and Haseltine remain distinct points along the road and rail corridors that connect these growing Ozark communities.
