2016 Map of Florence

About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep valley between the Kentucky and Indiana borderlands, serving as the central artery for this riverfront landscape. On the southern bank, the town of Warsaw is organized around a grid of streets including West Main Street and East Main Street, while the smaller settlement of Florence sits just downstream. Across the water, the Indiana topography is defined by sharp elevation changes and high points such as Pleasant Ridge and Scott Ridge. These uplands are home to rural communities like Antioch and the historic Antioch Cemetery. The rugged terrain north of the river is bisected by numerous drainages, notably Log Lick Creek and Turtle Creek, which have shaped the winding paths of rural routes like Tapps Ridge Road and Seymour Road. This map documents the persistent river-centered geography of Gallatin and Switzerland counties.
