2016 Map of Columbia

About this map

Columbia serves as the central hub of this Adair County landscape, where the academic grounds of Lindsey Wilson Coll and the transit facilities of Columbia-Adair County Airport underscore the area's modern development. Beyond the city center, the terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges such as Burton Ridge and Harvey Ridge, intersected by numerous watercourses including Russell Creek and Pettus Fork. This 2016 survey captures the rural character of southern Kentucky through its small outlying settlements like Fairplay, Bliss, and Flatwood. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting local landmarks like the New Columbia Cem and roads that preserve family names, such as Loy Cemetery Rd and N Johnson School Rd, providing a clear record of the community's established footprint in the early 21st century.
