2013 Map of Calhoun

About this map

The Green River carves a winding path across this portion of McLean County, defining the spatial layout of riverside communities like Calhoun and Rumsey. These twin settlements, separated by the water, serve as the geographic anchor for the region, where a dense network of local streets including S Canal St and Riverview Dr meet the riverbanks. The landscape is dotted with distinctively named locales such as Poverty, Cleopatra, and Jewel City, each connected by a web of rural routes like Porter School House RD and Leachman School House RD. Several small aviation facilities, including Moseley Field Airport and Woosley Field Airport, are situated among the river bends and creek drainages of Eagle Cr, Pond River, and Cypress Cr. The presence of the Gravel Ford Bridge further illustrates the historical importance of river crossings in navigating this low-lying terrain.
