2011 Map of Falls City

About this map

Falls City serves as the focal point of this Richardson County landscape, situated where the high ground meets the fertile valley of the Big Nemaha River. The town's layout is well-defined, anchored by the Falls City Post Office and bordered to the north by Stanton Lake and the Stanton Lake Campground. A series of burial grounds, including the Falls City Cemetery and Steele Cemetery, ring the community, providing significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. To the east, the smaller settlement of Preston is tucked between the river and the path of the Dustless Hwy. The surrounding terrain is heavily influenced by a network of waterways like Muddy Creek and Silver Creek, while aviation history is represented by Brenner Field north of the main township.
