About this map

Coleman serves as the primary hub of this Central Michigan landscape, where the intersection of W Saginaw Rd and the regional highway system anchors the local community. The map illustrates a complex drainage network essential to the area's agricultural and rural character, featuring the South Branch Tobacco River as it winds through the northern sections near Lyle. Numerous named waterways like Howe Drain, Lyle Drain, and Dunbar Drain reveal the engineered water management systems that have long supported the local farmsteads.

Boundary lines converge here, marking the meeting point of four counties: Clare, Gladwin, Isabella, and Midland. This intersection of jurisdictions, combined with the detailed street grid of Coleman featuring Murphy St, Sheler St, and E Adams St, provides a clear view of the town's organization. The terrain is further defined by various creeks, including Bluff Cr and Black Cr, which navigate the gentle elevations of the Saginaw Valley periphery.
