2013 Map of Kiron

About this map

Kiron serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Crawford County, defined by a rigid grid of section roads and the winding paths of several waterways. The town's small street network, featuring Lime St, Timothy St, and Eureka St, sits at the intersection of local commerce and transport. The drainage of the region is dominated by the Otter Creek system, including E Otter Creek, which meanders across the northern and central portions of the quadrangle. To the southeast, the Boyer River cuts a wider path through the terrain, accompanied by Newcom Creek and Boyer Boulevard. This map illustrates the intersection of a modernized rural road system with the natural hydrology that has long shaped farming in western Iowa.
