2013 Map of Goshen

About this map

The Elkhart River corridor south of Goshen defines this Indiana landscape, tracing a path through several distinct rural settlements. The river's influence on the local geography is evident at the Goshen Dam Pond and downriver toward Waterford Mills. Further south, the map documents the smaller communities of Bainter Town and New Paris, alongside the eastern settlement of Benton. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern layout of Elkhart County, where traditional agricultural operations like the L and D Dairy Farm and Prairie Dairy Farms sit adjacent to the growing aviation infrastructure of the Goshen Municipal Airport. The mapping of numerous drainage ditches, including Horn Ditch and Boyer Ditch, highlights the managed water systems critical to this region's fertile farmland.
