Faribault sits at the confluence of the Cannon River and Straight River, serving as a significant regional hub for Rice County. This contemporary survey details the city's established street grid and civic core, anchored by the Rice County Courthouse. The surrounding landscape is defined by the post-glacial geography of southern Minnesota, featuring prominent water bodies such as Roberds Lake, Dudley Lake, and Wells Lake. The map illustrates the integration of modern infrastructure with the natural terrain, including the Faribault Municipal Airport-Liz Wall Strohfus Field and the South Central College Faribault Campus. Genealogists will find several burial grounds meticulously marked, including Oak Ridge Cem, Saint Lawrence Cem, and Maple Lawn Cem, which reflect the community's long-standing history. The extensive Cannon River Trail network indicates the importance of the river corridor for both drainage and recreation in this part of the state.
