2024 Map of Como

About this map

Rock River dominates the southern reach of this Whiteside County landscape, where the settlement of Como sits just north of the water's edge. This modern survey illustrates a well-organized agricultural and transportation corridor defined by a grid of rural roads like Capp Rd and Science Ridge Rd. The area is dotted with several small communities and historic burying grounds, including Hickory Grove Cem and East Genesee Cem, which provide specific points of interest for those researching local family history. Waterways such as Elkhorn Creek and Deer Creek wind through the terrain, intersecting with major routes like Rte 30. The presence of Stutzke Airport and the smaller clusters at Agnew, Galt, and Emerson show the enduring pattern of rural settlement and infrastructure that has characterized this part of Illinois for generations.
