About this map

Garnett serves as a focal point for this Anderson County landscape, showing the town's grid stretching east from Main St toward the Garnett Municipal Airport. The area’s geography is defined by the winding course of Pottawatomie Creek and its South Fork, which intersect north and east of the main settlement. Small communities like Greeley in the northeast and Scipio in the northwest are connected by an extensive network of rural routes, including US Hwy 169 cutting diagonally across the quadrangle.

Local history is preserved in sites such as Saint John Cemetery, Judy Cemetery, and Garnett Cemetery, while recreational and civic features like Lake Garnett and the Garnett City Park Dam anchor the northwestern corner of the town. The layout of rural roads, often named for specific families or states like Trego Rd and NE Oregon Rd, reflects the established agricultural and residential patterns of the early 21st century.
