About this map

The Page County Courthouse anchors the southern portion of Clarinda, marking the regional importance of this county seat along the Nodaway River drainage. This 2022 survey captures the transition from the city's structured grid, featuring the Iowa Western Community College Clarinda Center, to the rural agricultural landscape of Page County. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of S Br W Nodaway River and No Business Cr, which cut through the rolling Iowa farmland.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds throughout the area, including Clarinda Cem, Lee Grove Cem, Covenanter Cem, and Butler Cem. The settlement at Shambaugh lies to the south, while the small community of College Springs is visible in the southwestern corner, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns of southwest Iowa. Landmarks like Schenck Field and Schenck Lake further distinguish the local geography near the confluence of the river's various branches.
