The sprawling northern suburban landscape of Decatur and the established village of Forsyth define this 2018 survey of Macon County. The transition from industrial corridors to agricultural outskirts is marked by the presence of Richland Community College and the older, quiet resting places of Boiling Springs Cem and Garver Cem. While the southern portion of the map shows dense residential development and commercial infrastructure, the northern reaches maintain a rural character around the small settlement of Emery. The drainage of the prairie is visible through the winding paths of Stevens Cr, Spring Cr, and Kickapoo Cr, which cut through the grid of county roads. Further east, the village of Oreana sits as a distinct outpost among the fields, connected to the urban center by a network of local routes like Garver Church Rd and W Hickory Point Rd.
