About this map

West Lafayette and the sprawling Purdue Univ-Main Campus dominate this 2016 record of Tippecanoe County. The landscape is defined by the sweeping curve of the Wabash River, which separates the two primary urban centers while supporting a complex network of transportation infrastructure. To the west, the Purdue University Airport serves as a major landmark, surrounded by residential developments like McQuinn Estates and Green Meadows.

Evidence of the region's historic corridors persists through labels like Old Tow Path Rd and Old US Hwy 231, running alongside modern industrial arteries such as CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern rail lines. Local genealogy and history are anchored by several notable burial grounds, including Tippecanoe Memory Gardens Cem and Saint Marys Cem, as well as established neighborhoods like Indian Village and Shadeland.
