2017 Map of Elk Point

About this map

The city of Elk Point serves as a focal point in this 2017 survey of Union County, South Dakota, situated near the shifting borders of Nebraska and Iowa. The landscape is defined by its relationship with the water, as the Missouri River carves a massive southern boundary, protected in part by the Missouri National Recreation River designation. The map provides a detailed view of the town's grid, including streets like W Main St and E Jefferson St, alongside localized landmarks like the MJ Aviation II Airport. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Elk Point Cem and Saint Joseph Cem offers specific points of interest for tracing family roots in the region. Smaller waterways like Brule Cr and Government Slough weave through the surrounding agricultural sections, illustrating the complex drainage patterns near the confluence of the Big Sioux and Missouri rivers.
