2015 Map of Coon Rapids North

About this map

Coon Rapids sits at the southern edge of this West Central Iowa landscape, where the Middle Raccoon River carves a winding path through the prairie terrain. To the north lies Carrollton, a small settlement marking the historical core of the township. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section roads, but the natural drainage patterns of Willow Cr and Calamus Cr interrupt this geometry, showing the persistent influence of the river valley on local development. Genealogists will find several burial sites documented, including Old Carrollton Cem, Oak Hill Cem, and Union Cem. A notable piece of local transit history is preserved in the naming of Stagecoach Rd, which hints at earlier travel corridors through the county. The transition from natural waterways to agricultural management is visible in the presence of Drainage Ditch Number 9-13 near the Greene County line.
