2017 Map of Butler

About this map

Butler serves as a prominent Bates County hub, showcasing a dense grid of streets including W Ohio St, W Fort Scott St, and W Mill St centered around the county's civic heart. This topographic survey captures the landscape at a point of balance between small-town expansion and the enduring agricultural heritage of western Missouri. To the north, the small community of Passaic is situated along the major transit corridor, while the Butler Memorial Airport indicates the region's modern infrastructure. The surrounding countryside is defined by rolling terrain and distinct elevations like Long Mound and Round Mound, with numerous waterways such as Mound Br and Big Deer Cr draining the land. Several local burial grounds, including Oak Hill Cem, Nichols Cem, and Glass Cem, offer vital locations for genealogical research and historical study of local settlement patterns.
