2013 Map of Clio

About this map

Clio serves as the primary settlement in this corner of Wayne County, Iowa, centered at the intersection of Co HWY-j54 and Main St. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of several southward-flowing streams, including the S Fork Chariton River, W Fork Medicine Cr, and Turkey Cr. These waterways create a rolling agricultural terrain marked by a grid of rural roads like Garden Rd and King Rd. To the northeast, the smaller locality of Hodge sits near the crossing of Howe road, illustrating the dispersed nature of Iowa's rural hamlets in the early 21st century. The map provides a detailed view of the local infrastructure, from the residential layout along School St to the section-line boundaries that have organized this prairie landscape for generations.
