About this map

Council Bluffs and its northern surroundings appear in detail during this 2010 survey, showcasing a landscape defined by the transition from urban density to rural farmland. The map documents numerous historical burial grounds essential for genealogical research, including Walnut Hill Cemetery, Saint Joseph Cemetery, and the Graybill Cemetery located near the eastern edge. Settlement patterns are visible along the corridor between Crescent and the city center, with smaller nodes like Chautauqua and Gilliatt flanking the regional infrastructure.

Water management and transportation dominate the geography, featuring the winding path of Mosquito Creek and the Indian Creek Ditch. Modern transit is represented by the Railroad Hwy and the presence of the Council Bluffs Municipal Airport to the east. The terrain north of the city is marked by family-named landmarks and rural reaches such as Camp Pokamoke, providing a clear view of the area's development and land use at the turn of the decade.
