2013 Map of Hartford West

About this map

Rubicon and Saylesville anchor this 2013 geographic study of the Dodge and Washington County borderlands. The landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology, with the Rubicon River winding westward toward the Neosho Millpond and the Ashippun River draining the southeastern corner near Druid Lake. The survey reveals a region transitioning from its traditional agricultural roots—exemplified by established tracts like Sterman Farms and Yoke Crest Farms—toward modern infrastructure and development. This shift is evident in the presence of the Hartford Municipal Airport and the expansion of residential and commercial corridors such as Constitution Ave and Innovation Way on the western edge of Hartford. Small marshy lowlands like Mud Run and Collins Lake persist between these developing areas, offering a clear view of the original terrain before the encroachment of contemporary municipal grids.
