Elmwood and Brimfield anchor this prairie landscape in western Peoria County, where agricultural patterns are shaped by a series of south-flowing waterways. The W Fork Kickapoo Cr and Tiber Cr carve across the terrain, flanked by numerous burial grounds including Saint Marys Cem, Lehigh Cem, and the Southport Cem near the small community of Southport. The map illustrates a modern infrastructure of aviation and transport, featuring the Shissler Landing Strip and Shissler Farm Airport set amidst a rigid grid of rural roads like N Bell School Rd and N McClellan Rd. This 2012 survey captures the area as it maintains its agrarian identity while supporting small-town centers and regional travel via the interstate corridor passing north of Brimfield.
