2019 Map of Farmington

About this map

Lakeville and Farmington anchor this survey of the southern Twin Cities metro area, where suburban expansion meets the agricultural roots of Dakota County. The landscape is defined by its transition from the developed residential blocks of Apple Valley and Burnsville in the north toward the open fields and riparian corridors of the south. The Vermillion River meanders through the southern townships, providing a natural contrast to the grid of modern thoroughfares like Dodd Blvd and Pilot Knob Rd. Genealogists will find a high concentration of community burial grounds throughout the area, including Saint Joseph Cem, Lakeville Grove Cem, and Corinthian Cem. In the southwest, the Airlake Airport serves as a significant regional landmark, marking the industrial edge of the contemporary township layout.
