2019 Map of Friendship

About this map

The Ohio River dominates this landscape, serving as the defining border between Ohio and Kentucky near the confluence with the Scioto River. The city of Portsmouth anchors the northeastern corner, where the County Courthouse and a dense grid of streets like Front St and 2nd St transition into the crossing at the Carl Perkins Memorial Bridge. To the southwest, the terrain transforms into a dense network of steep hollows and narrow ridges, such as Zorns Hollow and Opossum Hollow, illustrating the deeply dissected topography typical of the region.
