2016 Map of Farmington

About this map

The Vermillion River meanders through the southeastern portion of this landscape, anchoring the city of Farmington. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern residential expansion of Apple Valley and Rosemount as they integrate with the traditional agricultural survey lines of Dakota County. The map is particularly notable for its density of community landmarks, including several denominational burial grounds such as Saint Joseph Cem and Saint Michaels Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for local genealogy. In the southwest, the Airlake Airport indicates the region's industrial and transportation infrastructure. From the shores of Alimagnet Lake to the scattered wetlands in the southern townships, the map documents a transition from suburban residential corridors to the open drainage basins that characterize the upper reaches of the Vermillion watershed.
