2013 Map of Harris

About this map

Harris serves as the central hub for this corner of Osceola County, situated at the junction of Main St and Osceola Ave E. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a precise grid of rural roads and a complex network of waterways that define the prairie drainage patterns of the region. Notable water features include Iowa Lake in the north and the W Br Little Sioux River carving through the northeastern section. Numerous seasonal and perennial streams, such as Dugout Cr, Stony Cr, and the appropriately named Dry Run, weave between farm sections bounded by routes like Co Hwy M12 and Warbler Ave. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring agricultural layout of the Iowa-Minnesota borderlands, where the township and range system dictates the placement of every thoroughfare.
