The confluence of the Cannon River and the Straight River anchor the city of Faribault in this 2010 survey. The landscape is defined by its industrial and infrastructure hubs, notably the Kings Mill Dam and Cannon River Dam which historically powered the local economy. In the residential and outlying areas, several significant burial grounds including Saint Lawrence Cemetery, Calvary Cemetery, and Maple Lawn Cemetery offer clear points of interest for genealogists and local historians. To the west, the large expanse of Roberds Lake and the smaller Twin Lakes provide a contrast to the structured grid of the city, while the Faribault Municipal Airport and a network of arterial roads like Cedar Lake Blvd and Bagley Ave illustrate the modern transportation layout of Rice County.
