About this map

The rolling hills of eastern Johnson County unfold across this 2022 survey, where the suburban expansion of Iowa City meets the rural agricultural landscape. The northeastern portion of the city is characterized by residential development along Rochester Ave and the modern course of Ralston Cr. Beyond the city limits, the terrain is defined by a network of creeks, including Rapid Cr and Snyder Cr, which cut through the landscape toward the Iowa River.

Small unincorporated settlements like Morse, Newport, Elmira, and Oasis serve as anchors for the surrounding farming community. Genealogists and local historians can find several well-preserved burial grounds, such as Saint Marys Cem and Fairview Cem. The area’s aviation history is represented by the Picayune Airport, while the legacy of the prominent Hoover family is reflected in local landmarks like Hoover Cr and the Hoover Nature Trl.
