About this map

The Kent State Univ Kent Campus anchors the southern portion of this region, situated just east of the downtown Kent city center. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Cuyahoga River and the extensive waters of Lake Rockwell, which dominates the central geography. To the north, the growing community of Streetsboro sits at the intersection of major routes like Oh-14 and Oh-303, while the eastern edge includes the outskirts of Ravenna.

Genealogists can find numerous burial grounds across the quadrangle, including the Standing Rock Cem near the river and the Breakneck Cem further east. The transportation network is a mix of traditional rail corridors like the Wheeling & Lake Erie RR and modern facilities such as the Portage County Airport. Local landmarks such as the Midway Drive-In and smaller settlements like Sugar Bush Knolls and Brady Lake illustrate the suburban and recreational character of Portage County in this era.
