2013 Map of Diagonal

About this map

Diagonal stands as the primary hub of this Ringgold County landscape, where a grid of residential streets like W 7th St and W 4th St meets the agricultural expanse of southern Iowa. The Grand River meanders through the central terrain, joined by numerous tributaries including Plum Cr and Squaw Cr, illustrating the well-watered nature of these prairie lands. To the north, the development at Sun Valley Lake represents a shift toward modern recreation, contrasted by the quiet vicinity of Knowlton. The southern reaches are defined by the Kokesh County Recreation Area, providing a dedicated space for public use near the riverbanks. A dense network of section-line roads, such as Co Hwy-P33 and 190th St, provides the framework for the region's farming heritage, connecting the scattered settlements and natural landmarks across the drainage basins of Crooked Cr and Wolf Cr.
