2010 Map of Colfax

About this map

Colfax serves as the primary hub of this Jasper County landscape, where the South Skunk River carves a winding path through the central lowlands. The 2010 survey highlights a agricultural region punctuated by several small, scattered settlements such as Goddard, Metz, and Severs. Family history and local heritage are well-preserved through a high density of rural interments, including the Slaughter Cemetery, Rorabaugh Cemetery, and the Kelley Family Burial Ground south of the river. Transport and infrastructure are represented by the Colfax Post Office and the Prairie City-Krohn Airport near the southern boundary. The map illustrates a developed township grid where natural drainages like Severs Creek and Prairie Creek intersect with an established network of county highways and local roads.
