About this map

Creston sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape in Northern Illinois, situated along the border of Ogle and DeKalb Counties. The village is defined by a grid of local streets including W North St and W South St, with the surrounding territory divided by an extensive network of rural routes like Willrett Rd and Tower Rd. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of the eastern edge of Rochelle and the village of Malta to the east, showing how these communities remain anchored by established transportation corridors like E State Rte 38.

Water management and local services are central to the area's layout, from the winding paths of Killbuck Cr and its tributaries to the specialized presence of Hendrickson Flying Service and Kishwaukee College. Genealogy researchers may find interest in the location of Woodlawn Cem, located north of the village near the creek, while the presence of N Creston Ditch reflects the engineered drainage systems vital to the region's productive farmlands.
