2018 Map of Dallas Center

About this map

Dallas Center sits at the heart of this central Iowa landscape, showing a meticulously gridded town plan defined by streets like Ash St, Walnut St, and Vine St. The surrounding countryside in Dallas County is deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by a high concentration of pioneer and community burial grounds including Saint Marys Cem, Masonic Cem, and Brethren Cem. To the southeast, the expanding footprint of Waukee begins to appear, signaling the modern growth of the Des Moines metropolitan fringe. The natural geography is shaped by slow-moving drainage systems, with Slough Cr and Royer Cr meandering through the sections, while Little Walnut Cr and Walnut Cr define the eastern reaches of the quadrangle. This 2018 survey provides an essential record for those tracing family plots at Kinnick Cem or Merical Cem within the township and range boundaries.
