2010 Map of Canton

About this map

Canton serves as a prominent hub in this 2010 landscape, situated along a bend in the Big Sioux River where the borders of South Dakota and Iowa meet. The town's grid is well-established, supported by the Canton Municipal Airport and a network of section-line roads like 482nd Ave. Cultural and historical markers are concentrated near the river, including the Canton Mounds and the Canton Cemetery, while the smaller settlement of Beloit sits just to the south across the water. The surrounding area is defined by a dense drainage system where Beaver Creek and Little Beaver Creek feed into the river, alongside the Big Sioux Wildlife Public Hunting Area to the northeast. This survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and river-oriented layout of Lincoln County, highlighting the geographic importance of the river as both a state boundary and a focal point for local cemeteries and landmarks.
