About this map

Lima and its southern neighboring communities of Fort Shawnee, Yoder, and South Warsaw appear as a complex blend of urban development and rural township infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of logistics and education, with the Lima Allen County Airport and the shared grounds of Ohio State University - Lima Campus and Rhodes State College anchoring the eastern side of the I-75 corridor. Water management for the city is evident through the large Ferguson Reservoir, Lost Creek Reservoir, and Twin Lake Reservoir near the northern border.

Agricultural heritage remains visible in the southern reaches of the quadrangle, where the Auglaize River and Little Ottawa River meander through the landscape. Genealogists can find several family-named burial grounds, such as Tony Nose Cem and Bressler Cem, scattered across the rural township sections. The map also records the jurisdictional boundary between Allen Co and Auglaize Co near the southern edge.
