About this map

The agrarian landscape of Clinton County is defined here by a network of drainage ditches and creeks that support the fertile plains surrounding the city of Frankfort. Waterways such as S Fork Wildcat Cr and Heavilon Ditch wind through the township, interspersed with small rural clusters like Jefferson and Mattix Corner. The infrastructure is characterized by a precise grid of county roads, including W Farmers Gravel Rd, which connect the outlying settlements of Cambria and Hamilton to the central hub.

Industrial and community landmarks are prominent on the western edge of the city, including the Frankfort Municipal Airport and the sprawling campus of Wesley Manor. The map captures a moment of modern land management, where the extensive ditch systems like Blinn Ditch and Boyles Ditch illustrate the engineering required to maintain this productive agricultural territory. Smaller residential developments like Woodside Park show the gradual outward growth of the city into the surrounding countryside.
