2021 Map of Calumet City

About this map

Hammond and Calumet City anchor this heavily developed industrial and residential landscape straddling the Illinois and Indiana state line. The map reveals an intricate network of surface streets and modern expressways that have redefined the region, yet traditional markers of local heritage remain prominent. Numerous cemeteries, including the expansive Oakland-Memory Lanes Cem and Assumption Catholic Cem and Mausoleum, serve as vital touchstones for genealogists tracing family roots in the South Side suburbs. Waterways like the Grand Calumet River and Thorn Creek navigate the dense grid, while specialized facilities such as the Lansing Municipal Airport and South Suburban College reflect the area's mid-century growth and infrastructure. Smaller neighborhoods like Schrum, Bernice, and Oakglen provide local context for the larger urban centers of Lansing and South Holland.
