2010 Map of Greenville

About this map

The small unincorporated communities of Greenville and Rossie anchor this section of Clay County, Iowa, reflecting the enduring grid of agricultural section lines and rural homesteads. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Prairie Creek and Willow Creek, which interrupt the orderly layout of roads like 400th St and 180th Ave. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of vital community landmarks, including the Bethlehem Lutheran Cemetery, Prairie Creek Cemetery, and Lincoln Cemetery. At the northern edge, the transition into the southern outskirts of Spencer is marked by the Spencer Municipal Golf Course, showing the intersection of municipal development and the expansive prairie farmland that characterizes this region of northwest Iowa.
