2017 Map of Johnstown

About this map

Johnstown occupies the heart of this Brown County landscape, where the street grid of Main St, Center St, and Cleveland Ave marks the small town's footprint. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and sand draws characteristic of the Nebraska Sandhills. To the north and west, Plum Cr and its tributaries, including Evergreen Cr and Cedar Cr, have carved intricate valleys through the upland. This intersection of water and land is further shaped by the Ainsworth Canal, which cuts across the central townships to manage the region's water resources. For those tracing local heritage, both Woodlawn Cem and East Woodlawn Cem are clearly sited near the town center, serving as key points of reference for the community's genealogy and history.
