2015 Map of Eagle Grove

About this map

Eagle Grove and Goldfield serve as the primary population centers in this agricultural portion of Wright County, where the Boone River carves a winding path through the landscape. The river's natural meanders contrast with an extensive network of engineered waterways, including Ditch Number 4, Ditch Number 15, and Drainage Ditch Number 102, which reflect decades of landscape modification for regional farming. Genealogists will find several significant burial sites, such as the Wright County Burying Grounds and the Rose Hill Cem south of Goldfield. The layout of Eagle Grove is detailed down to its street grid, featuring E Broadway St and numerous numbered avenues, while the Eagle Grove Municipal Airport stands as a notable landmark to the north of the city proper. These features illustrate a rural Iowa community defined by its water management and established small-town infrastructure.
